Its a toss up between the Ultimate with the coolant included, and the next one up with a lightened crank pulley.

Which one do you have, and for how much?

Care to share the grounds for your opinion on the crank pulley? Its not even a race pulley, its just 75% lighter. Less rotaional mass(directly off the crank for that matter) with no side effects on the accesory drive system. Am I missing the downside?

I had a DH-Racing Single channel race pulley on my honda and that bitch was 6oz and 1/3 the diameter of the stock 3 channel. Still had enough to power the alternator.

Doesnt seem like too bad of a deal($40-50 off the sale price when purchased in the kit). Basically just like paying marginally less then retail for the basic timing belt/pump job except you get a perfromance part included. ECS is fairly reputable so if you have some geniuine pitfalls to this part on a 1.8T I'm all ears.
