I pulled my metal pullies off. I got too clean happy and sprayed brake cleaner on the pulley. I damaged the bearing for spraying brake cleaner. The ASP pulleys are also coated with some black chemical so just wipe them off with a rag and do not spray any chemicals on the pulleys themselves.
you can buy the ASP pulleys from this website and call the 800 number and speak to a gentleman by the name of Lee www.aspracing.com/
the pulleys cost $65 a piece $130 shipped. Great pulley for the money they are also made of steel.
Go to NAPA to get the copper plugs, you can get them as cheap as $1.20 a piece and up to $1.99 a piece change them out every 20k.
One step colder copper plugs:
NGK # BKR6E-11
Nissan # 22401 - 50Y06
two step colder
NGK # BKR7E-11
The -11 part of the NGK number is multiplied by .004" to get the gap size for an engine producing stock hp. This would make the stock gap 0.044". Most people with SC's and such are running 0.034" - 0.038" in order to further reduce tendency for detonation.

Well for a fact I can tell you that anything @ 3.25 too and including ASP's 3.0" pulley will use the 6 rib 695 length. I think that is the stock belt in the V1 kit which means it will work with the 3.33, 3.48, and 3.6, but I didn't buy the kit new so I can't speak for sure.
Adam Hume (adam@stillen.com) sent these to me... this may duplicate some of the data already listed here, but at least we'll know that these are "offiical". I've got the excel spreadsheet these come from, if anyone wants them.
NOTE: Always refer to these part numbers when talking to Stillen - Adam said that you have a much better chance of getting help with the right part #'s...

Q: Can I add an intercooler/aftercooler to my Vortech supercharger system?
A: Yes, but it's not clear how beneficial it will be.
For the sake of simplicity I will refer to air-to-water/air-to-air intercoolers and aftercoolers as just "intercoolers". For a more detailed breakdown read this thread.
First off, know that any intercooler you want to add to your vortech supercharger will have to be custom. Nobody makes an off-the-shelf intercooler so you'll have to put it together yourself or pay someone else to. At a basic level it will consist of the intercooler iteself, piping from the blower to the intercooler, and piping from the intercooler to the MAF. In the case of an air-to-water aftercooler you'll also need a water reservoir and water lines to and from the aftercooler.
Why go through all this touble? Well as your blower spins and compresses the air on its way to the engine, it also heats it up. Hot air is less dense than cold air, and all things being equal, a colder, denser charge will make more power than a warm one. In addition to creating more power with a denser charge, the cooler air will also help to combat detonation by lowering cylinder temperatures.
Sounds great, right? Unfortunately this added power and safety comes at a cost. Because the air must now follow a longer path before getting to the engine you will get a drop in boost pressure when measured at the throttle body. So while the blower may be pumping out 10psi, 2 or 3psi are getting lost on the way through the intercooler system. The amount of boost lost is dependant on the efficiency of the intercooler, the amount of piping required, and the "smoothness" of the bends in the piping.
So when does is become "worth it"? Credit goes to Stephen Max for this detailed explaination...
Quote:
An acceptable pressure loss through the intercooler and piping is on the order of 1 to 1.5 psi. The 3.6" pulley gives 7 psi and is good for a 80 hp gain, and people running 10 psi are typically seeing 300hp at the wheel, a 120 hp gain. So that translates to about 10-15 hp per psi, with decreasing power gain the higher you go in boost pressure. So lets say a good intercooler setup with 1 psi boost loss costs 10 hp, and if the setup is not so good, a 20 hp loss.
A widely accepted figure for power gain from charge air cooling is 1% for every 10 deg F of temperature drop. So working with a 300 hp figure, to get back the 10 hp the charge air needs to be cooled 33 F, and to get back 20 hp we need 66 F of cooling.
I have done an extensive amount of data logging with an intake air temperature gauge. I have one thermocouple at the blower inlet and one at the throttle body. Boosting to 11 psi results in a maximum charge air temp of 185 F. That was on a hot day where the air temp at the road surface was about 100F, so the temp rise was 85 F. I have never seen the temperature higher than 185 F.
Assuming an intercooler with 80% cooling efficiency, the 185 F charge air will be cooled to 117 F, assuming 100 F ambient ( convert to absolute temp by adding 460; ==> [645-577]/[645-560] = 80% )
So, to summarize, an intercooler working at 80% efficiency will cool 185 F charge air down to 117 F, which is a 68 F temp drop. So for an intercooler and piping system that results in a 10 hp loss due to pressure drop, we have gained back about 20 hp due to temperature drop, for a net gain of 10 hp. If the intercooler and piping results in a 20 hp loss, then we have broken even with the temperature drop.
Here is more info you can read up to decide for yourself...

Normally, the V2 is pretty quiet while operating but if you're starting to hear that marbles-in-a-can noise you can check one thing before you ship the blower off to Vortech. While the engine is off, take a look at the drive pulley and see if it is loose. Loose in this case meaning that there is play in sliding it back and forth a bit on the spindle. If there is, check also the side of the engine block and see if there are any shiny scratches next to it. If you do see them then that means you've got a loose pulley. The allen bolt that anchors the drive pulley to the blower has worked itself loose and the loose pulley is allowing excessive vibrations on the spindle causing that dreaded noise. You'll have to take the blower out and use a little more blue loc-tite on that bolt.
Update: blue loctite may not do the trick. I've used a little of the red loctite on it after the bolt had come loose again.
Why? So that one of the bends of the 2.5" charge pipe can be eliminated (the retarded chamfered elbow) and ease of configuration for those who want to upgrade to a 3" charge pipe system. Re-clocking the blower also gets the charge pipe away from the back of the headlight and allows a lot more room for those who do headlight retrofits. (My chamfered elbow was rubbing my OEM headlight bulb connection and causing it to flicker on and off)
Keep in mind that if you're keeping the 2.5" charge pipe that originally was provided in the Stillen kit, then you'll have to cut off a portion at the end of the charge pipe (at the second bend near the SC mounting plate) and get a new silcone 90 degree coupler (2.75" to 2.5") to reconfigure the system. If you're upgrading to a 3" charge pipe, then you'll have to buy quit a bit more including: piping/couplers/your choice of BOV, Maf adapter etc.
Where? In your car, blower fully installed and mounted to the engine. It's a common misconception that the blower must be removed from the car in order to re-clock the blower. You do not have to take the blower off the car, unless you run into the problem stated in the disclaimer below. This probably goes without saying, but re-clocking the blower while installed in the car allows you to fine tune and find the perfect angle in such a way that the 90 degree silicone elbow is situated just right and allows proper hood clearance. If the blower was removed from the car, then you'll be taking the trial and error approach and burning a lot of time taking the blower/plate on and off/re-clocking the blower in order to find the perfect angle.
Here's how the blower looks as Stillen/Vortech intended (2.5" charge pipe, two bends at/near blower outlet)
Here's how the blower looks re-clocked (3" charge pipe, one 90 degree bend)
Here's how to re-clock (rotate) your blower
Pic 1
Pic 2
Look near the oil feed fitting and you’ll see a hold down plate and two allen screws. (See Pic 2) Keep in mind, there is still one more hold down plate and two screws to locate. See pic 1 for both plates (outlined in red) and all 4 screws (noted in green). Although the blower is installed in the car and space is limited, you should have no problem getting to the plates and allen screws. The hold down plate and screws holds the scroll to the blower itself. Loosen the screws quit a bit until you are able to re-clock (rotate) the blower’s outlet. You can remove the screws and hold down plates if you find it easier or the scroll isn’t rotating freely. Now re-clock the blower's outlet to the desired position. Tighten the allen screws to prevent any further rotation and snug things back up the way they were. If you removed the 4 allen screws and 2 plates, reinstall them at this time.
* Some people have reported that they have 5 screws and 3 hold down plates. If you can't re-clock the scroll after undoing/removing the 4 screws and 2 hold down plates as stated above, then look for a fifth screw and small hold down plate. This small hold down plate is only slightly bigger than the screw head itself. This 5th screw and small plate is noted in blue in Picture #1.
Disclaimer: Some people have it easier than others. Some discover that one of the plates is easily accessible (12 o’clock position) while the other is impossible to get to (6 o’clock position) while the blower is installed in the car. If this is the case, you may have to remove/uninstall your blower from your Maxima to gain accessibility to the hidden plate and screws. If so, feel free to relocate the plate and screws to a more accessible location anywhere around the perimeter of the scroll. Just keep in mind, that wherever you install one plate, the other plate should be on the opposite side of the scroll. When I re-clocked my blower, I had it easy. Both of my plates and 4 screws were easily accessible (3 o’clock and 9 o’clock position) [Positions are based on the individual standing at the passenger side of the car and looking at the blower]

How to install that Jegs oil cooler. This is so so simple
Items needed
1. Brake cleaner
2. Permatex grey or black
3. 771-10189 250 Horsepower Oil Cooler Kit Sandwich Adapter Style Kit
4. Go to Ace and purchase fittings 42069 and 40122 You will need two of each
remove your oil filter and clean area
grab a cutting wheel or pliers and bend that piece sticking out, that holds the crank pos wire in place
install that fitting so you can tighten sandwich, follow the photos
grab your Ace fittings, apply permatex black or grey to threads, ensure one of the fittings is angled. You apply permatex so you dont leak any oil
After assembling oil adapter sandwich bolt it on
you can use your oem nissan oil filter or take adapter and sandwich to autozone or whomever and test fit a larger oil filter
run high pressure lines to the cooler
attach cooler to the front of radiator and your done
follow the photos this is a straight up install the rest is common sense
use a big socket to properly tighten that sandwich. Be patient!!! Be patient the nut is pretty slim and you might slip and bust your hand. So if we are little young technicians be patient, take it from an older guy that has busted his knuckles
Put oil back in and enjoy your cooler. It really works, I have attached a oil temp gauge to monitor the temps when I was turboed/SCed and you wont believe how hot that oil can get. This little cooler will drop your temps by alot.
pay attention to the way the serated edge is! apply permatex black or grey on the actual threads that screw into the original threads. Use some pliers to screw this small adapter on. Once again be patient and dont strip out the threads!
the fittings will prevent you from bending those high pressure hoses at an angle, much neater install, dont forget the rubber
O ring that goes behind the sandwich! its a black rubber band in the plastic bag. You will get two. Its the smaller one!
your done thats the hardest part of the install! rest is butter. You can cut line in half, attach cooler to the front radiator of the car and zip tie hose so it dont get caught up in the bottom etc... attach hoses to the fittings you just ran.
If your blind clik on photo 3 times! it will blow up
hey, I'm sorry if this is the wrong thread, or something but this is pretty new to me. I just got a 2000 max se 5spd. I want to put a belt supercharger in it, but I am not sure what brand to get, what one is good quality, etc. any help?
I have a Question after my S/C was installed i got a CEL for the Boost Sensor i was wondering if i can/should put a Check valve on it. 2000 Maxx SE 5spd Cali spec. thanks

Hi Jay, I have a question if you dont mind. I have the sandwich adapter but when I install it the way you show in the pics, the lips on both the upper & lower oil pan prevent from installing it the way you show, instead of installing at 6:00 o'clock I had to turn the sandwich adapter to 9:00 o'clock, but now I dont know if that will touch the axle this way. Did you had to cut a section where both oil pan mate ?. I have a 2k1 max with DEK engine.
Thanks
AA
