I love them! They were really the best choice for me based on my mods. Are you looking at different gears?

Forget about the pullies. If you want to upgrade something get a midpipe. The stock midpipes are very restrictive. You'll notice more with the midpipe then the pullies.

When i installed my Steeda UDP's, they did make a small difference. My brother used to pull me ever so dlightly once we hit 3rd gear...everytime. Afterwards we were dead even once we were in 3rd...eveytime. I couldn't actually feel the difference, but apparently it helped a little.

Someone on here was recently telling me how udp's are potentially bad for a motor. It actually made some good sense, but i need to do some more research on this myself. Until then, they seem like an okay mod to me for the money.

gears are one of my top favorite mods ive done. When i went from 2.73's to 4.10's it was a huge jump, completely different car!

3.73's are great for a DD, 4.10's are more for dragging, racing and what not. However I have 4.10s and its a DD for me, so it doesn't matter. What I started doing was shifting into 2nd for starting since 1st tops at 30 mph with 4.10's

I have 4.10s, I love them. I'd say forget the pullies, your money's better spent elsewhere. But if you do decide to get pullies, don't cheap out and buy the piggyback sets; they're the ones known to cause problems. Spend the money and buy an SFI set of pullies.
