ZZP Supercharger coupler

Has anyone installed thier coupler (the green one) instead of the direct replacement eaton coupler? notice any difference? im looking into changing it out soon and wonder if it was worth the extra cash.

Its really not made to give a performance boost, but that zzp coupler states it will outlast the life of the blower.

It seems the holes on the stock coupler will eventually stretch and make your blower rattle.

There is an m62 rebuild kit on ebay that sends you everything you need and uses the same coupler, it comes with oil, the coupler, gloves, some papertowels and some gasket maker.

I changed mine before i painted it, the install is easy.

I have the zzp green one in my m62 I changed it out just the other day. the stock eaton one (with 90k miles) looked fine, there was actually no play on the pins and the coupler was sitting snug. I still changed it though.

When I turn my car off I hear a weird rattle noise or like something hasn't quit spinning yet haven't figured it out yet. I'm thinking it might be this
