No the dizzy pulley is slightly different in depth, it'll sit either too far in or not far enough I can't remember which.

no,i dont want it,but the previous owner made full sh*** on my car,
and i dont know why it is to rich on boost and made no good power.

could wrong cam timing made it to rich/inefficient ?

the car runs fine with a msd chip on greys,but once it made boost it goes rich.
the more boost i drive,the richer it gets.
( afr 11,5 on 1bar boost and 10,0 on 1,7bar)

and it made no more power on higher boost.

perhaps someone could help me,i tried really everything !!

best regards chris

it will deffo not fit as the offset and diameter on the axel is not the same.
To me it sounds like the fuel-pressur regulator is wrong or the map is totally off, have seen some maps are made for greens but people put grey or light blue in to get it more rich without changing the fuel map

They do vary on diameter, we looked at using cam wheels on the dizzy shaft for reasons i won`t go into here, but it would be possible to make something work if necessary. It should be obvious if they did though, the modification should be pretty obvious.
