What IP is this?

I'm also going to look into having my pulley machined to fit, but yea it does seem tricky (plus mine is not in the best shape so I would get a better one if I were going to go through the trouble of machining it). I think I would be better off simply machining a MK4 pulley, which will not involve re-creating tapers and critical dimensions. I'll see if i can find one soon, I'm losing hope though, I have a feeling the hub part is gonna be hard to find, then there is the hassle of initially timing it right with no key.
I'm still hoping to use this pump as of now, since it is new and it is all Bosch. Alot of trouble to end up with a 9MM NA pump!!! but it'll be better then a $160 paper weight! I have plenty of paper weights as it is!

Libbybaba, you mentioned that I would need to change the control collar lever on this pump too? it sure looked the same as the other pumps I have. Is there (probably ) something else I am not aware of?

Thanks again

You could simply make an adaptor to make the shaft longer at a machinist shop.

Well, I ended up finding a nice 1.6 pully I forgot I had. I had it machined to fit the 20mm shaft and all went well, expensive at $165 though! The place ended up making a broach to plunge into the pully, so next time around it would be alot less money! If anyone ever needs to have this done, you can contact Race Metal Smiths in WRJ VT and mail your sprocket to them (Ph# not in front of me at the moment) Really good shop. The place happens to be located right next to NE diesel injection, where I learned more about this pump.

One question; someone at an online VW place keeps insisting that a MK3 TDI pully will work on this pump, I told him no - if the folks on GTD say no, then the answer is no!!! GTD opinion is the gospel man!

So the pump is on but I forgot I lent out my timing tools to a friend who finally got them back to me today, so tomorrow I hope to fire her up!
