Need a few tips please!!!

Okay I'm looking at a few different things that I may want to do.
A couple of these I prob should post in electronics but I thought I would keep it together.
1. I'm confused on Like the Agency Power or Craven crank pulley. I know that it can free up some power or at least give a quicker accel, but I have read of some running from 20,000 to 50,000 miles with no problem at all. Then I have read some saying there is a built in dampener and the crank in the tC is bal. but by removing the dampener it puts stress on the cam chain and oil pump chain there by setting it up for something to break, so I don't know what to do on that. I don't want to spend $150.00 on the pulley then spend $12,000.00 on a engine. I only have 5,500 miles on the car and I don't want to kill it.
The other thing is can It benifit from these other two upgrades?
2. Wepon R -Ignition Equalizer
3. Voltage Stabilizer

Thanks in advance

VOLTAGE stabilizer is junk, just buy a capacitor if you have a big draw.
never heard of anyone getting anything usefull outa the equalizer as well, save and buy something usefull.

and i have the agency crank pulley, your right it does remove a rubber damper when your change the pulley out, but all that does is make your engine run a little smoother, i have a little more vibration but not bad, its what happens when your lighten the shit outa a wheel. ive only heard of under and overdrive pulleys fuckin up the motor.

x2 i also have the agency power pulley and have had no problems whatsoever! its been on my car probably for about 10.000 miles

the idea is that the dampener reduces torsional vibrations to the crankshaft, preventing crank walk and other damaging side-effects of high speed rotations.

The crank pulley isn't going to hurt your motor - you may need to replace your main bearing at 100,000 miles, but that's kinda of what you should expect when you start modding.

You'll be fine - I can't say from experience, cause I've only had a crank pulley for 25,000 miles.

Dont buy a cap a cap is junk. If you have that much draw first upgrade the big 3 grounds. Then upgrade battery... Still not enough upgrade the alternator. But it sounds like your going more performance. So none of that you will need.

Okay cool all this makes sence by the time I get 100,000 it will be payed off then no more warranty and its turbo time. I have some know how on v8's so by removing the dampener adds some viberation to the crank. From what I do know is that the two outer main's are thrust bearings. On acc. the crank moves to to front of the engine and on decel. it moves to the rear of the engine at idel it floats back and forth. So the pulley without the dampener would just speed up the wear somewhat. Okay if I'm not right on this tell me, and thanks for the info on the two electrical parts by the way. Well by the time I get ready for the turbo I may go in with pistons and rods or basic go through the bottom end.
I think I may take the gamble on the pulley because I want that rev.

Personal opinion, dont do the crank pulley... Get all the other bolt on mods... The crank pulley frees up power by being lighter and spinning faster. So tech your not gaining power its just coming faster... Get a header, and exhaust and intake... do the bolt on stuff, much more bang for your buck.
