It is flush. I though it was not though. I think at this point I'm over reacting to any little thing. I thought I left the plug out. I ended up marking it not the plug and I'm sure it's just vibrating around. I thought the Intense pulleys fit better than this ZZP, but maybe the ID around the hub is a little tighter on the Intense ones.

Unless there's some '04+ dbw witchcraft going on, that I wouldn't know anything about.
I had the SC off last weekend and found one bolt loose and the gasket was kinda messed up. I posted that in another thread asking about wether I should or shouldn't reuse the gasket. I've inserted a wooden dowel in the inlet and tried to turn the pulley. I tried but didn't want to damage the coating on the rotors.

It turns with more resistance than a clean Gen 3 but I think between the abraidable coating and some carbon it felt normal. Last night I logged throttle position and had 99% displayed and the bypass shut (another one from a gen 3). I removed the plug from the manifold and plugged it, unplugged the connection at the valve, and tied the inlet side back on itself with wire ties and still nothing. I'm going to check the SC fluid a little later and see how it looks. That's one thing I haven't looked at and have time to check.

Thanks,
