Pulleys

[kris5597]

ok i've been thinking about going with this set up when i get the money and i wanted to see what peeps thought of it and if its worth it. i wana get the nst pulleys. WP-Lite water pump pulley, 20% overdrive alternator pulley, and the 20% under drive lite crank pulley. nst says that the under drive crank pulley will put out more hp than just the lite weight one so i wanted to go with that one. hoping to free up about 10 whp hopefully. sound good?

wont get 10 whp....it will just rev faster...i have the agency power light weight pulley

it allows the engine to spin faster, so don't think of it as a hp gain, think of it more light a weight reduction - same power, just put to better use. Increases fuel economy too - great mod.

Underdrive pulleys are fine, but your A/C won't be as cold, and you'll decrease opperating voltage from the alternator...underdrive pulleys help with power, but IMO, unless you're going balls to the wall, and making this car a purebred racecar, I'd stick with OE sized lightweight pulleys - the difference is like .8hp, seriously.

o really aight then. ill do that. just light weight oem size. but 20% alternator pulley good though huh or should i just keep that the same?

:ponder:be careful with the crank pulley the under drive pulley has a high tendence to blow the motor!also the alternater pulley might not give you as much running voltage

ok well i changed my mind on all of it decided to go with the agency power light weight crank pulley.
