Power Pulley Kit • PQ35 2.0T EA888.1

Since 1975, NEUSPEED has led the industry with an unmatched record of aftermarket firsts for Volkswagen and Audi vehicles—setting the standard for design, innovation, and an unrelenting attention to detail. Over 20 years ago, NEUSPEED pioneered the aftermarket power pulley kit. Today, with zero reported engine failures or reductions in engine lifespan, our track record speaks for itself. As the original creator of the TSI pulley upgrade, we thank you for supporting the innovator, not the imitators.

Your engine's alternator and A/C compressor are driven by a serpentine belt connected directly to the factory crankshaft pulley. Spinning these heavy components creates parasitic drag, robbing your engine of precious horsepower. To solve this, NEUSPEED powertrain engineers utilized sophisticated CAD software to perform a thorough mass properties analysis of the crank pulley. The result is a lighter, highly optimized under-drive system that frees up lost power, sharpens throttle response, and allows the engine to rev much quicker.

Features

• Extreme Mass Reduction: Drops rotating mass significantly, trading the heavy 4.0 lb (64 oz) factory crank pulley for a featherweight 13 oz NEUSPEED unit.
• Proven Power Gains: Unlocks an honest 5–7 horsepower gain by reducing parasitic load on the engine.
• 20% Under-Drive Optimization: Features a precision-calculated 20% under-drive reduction to maximize power recovery without compromising the operation of your alternator or A/C systems.
• Aerospace Material Choice: CNC-machined from ultra-strong 7075 aluminum and hard-anodized for long-term durability and wear resistance.
• Exclusive Stainless Steel Sleeve: Features a NEUSPEED-exclusive, heat-treated, and ground-finished stainless steel ring insert to permanently prevent pulley snout wear against the engine's main oil seal.
• Complete Hardware Package: Ships ready for installation with a new under-drive crankshaft pulley, a fresh replacement crankshaft bolt, and a properly sized ribbed serpentine belt.

Notes

• Fitment: Engineered for 1.8 TSI (Gen 2) and 2.0T TSI (EA888 Gen 1 & Gen 2) engines found in the following applications:
  • Audi: A3 (2008.5–Up), TT (2008.5–Up), and Q3 8U (2015–Up)
  • VW: GTI Mk5 / Mk6 (2008.5–2014), Jetta V / VI (2008.5–2013.5), CC, EOS, Passat, and Tiguan Mk1
• Installation Advice: Factory specialized tools are required for installation. Professional installation is highly recommended to ensure the crankshaft bolt is torqued to exact factory specifications.
• Visual Accuracy: Product photos depict the actual high-quality components and accessories included in the kit.
• Origin: Proudly designed, engineered, and manufactured in Camarillo, California, USA.
