then some engineer sitting behind a desk. I'm an engineering student at UT and have worked at a car tuning shop and in an office job at Shell with engineers and will be working at NASA next fall. Engineers think they know it all, and they are smart people, however there is something more to be said for the people that work on it first hand in the real world everyday (especially when is comes to tuning cars). At the shop we would have engineers that are getting their cars done and they would be telling the guys this won't work and this will etc etc etc. The techs just kind of knod along and do what they do best, and this is how they make a superior product. And just for your own engineers 0WN arguement, do you completely ignore the engineers that design the light weight pulleys in the first place? What do the all coveted Nissan engineers know that they do not? I still stick to my opinion that this whole thing started with some bimmer that may or may not have blown its engine due to a lightweight pulley (on an I6 for the record) and all the internet tools that think they know everything followed by jumping on the bandwagon.
