Guys, remember the great intake debate?

Debating Camell is somewhat of a futile endeavor. He's not too interested in the subject at hand, but rather in having the last word/post.

I remember him bashing my wikipedia links on the intake debate on the reason that wikipedia is a bunch of unverified statements made by simple people, yet he uses more than a dozen wikipedia links to support his tirade against NST pulleys...

As for the OEM pulley, I've seen what time and the elements do to rubber. They make it hard and brittle. There is no way that rubber ring will maintain its rubbery properties for many years, so I think it's quite safe to assume that after a while, the OEM pulley is just like a solid pulley... only MUCH heavier...

This is a very good point.
