Mac pulleys are like $60 and they gain just as much as any other. Get those and a higher amp alternator then you're cool <img border="0" src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0">

I do alot of stereo installs and truthfully you should have a high output alternator anyway. You would see a noticeable difference in sound quality if you did get one. But without it, the underdrives are probably going to hurt your charging system.

The price for the pulleys and the alternator might not be worth it. If you aren't experencing any problems now then throw the money into something else; like gears.
