Hi everyone, I was just wondering what your thoughts on underdrive pulleys are? I know they give you a little more power but have heard that your accessories, like you air conditioner, dont work as well.
I would like to know some pros and cons on these if anyone has any experiance with them.
Thanks

Everything will work like normal as long as you buy both the crank pulley and the alternator pulley. You'll gain about 1-2 tenths off of a quarter mile and they will usually run you alittle over $200. Really not worth the money, IMO. I would save this for one of the last mods you do, due to the high cost and little gain. Another downfall is that, after helping my friend put some on, I must tell you.... the crank pulley is a pain in the butt to put on. You'll have to have a pulley puller and it takes some time finding a way to get some leverage to take the bolt out.

Thanks for the input Slowprocess. What are some other mods you would do before them?
