Ive got them under the hood of my car. I cant give you very accurate feed back on just a pullie mod, cause I had them installed along with a water pump and 3.73's.
What I'm concerned with is the fact that the charging system can't keep up with the electrical draw. Have any of you had that kind of situation? That might cause low battery charging or A/C that doesn't get cold enough. That kind of thing.

When I had them on the Vic I didnt install the alternator pully becuase I had a lot of ham radio equipment...never had any problem with voltage/current

have nothing to do with whether or not you have an auto or a manual, same effect. Not worth it imo, but you will have mixed feelings from all. But to answer your question, there is NO difference.
Then why do you list in your signature? My opinion it is worth it andis abest buy for the money on increasing the horsepower.

I have them listed in my signature because i have them on my car, lol.... It "IS" a mod. But after a before and after dyno pull, seeing a 1-2 hp increase, i realized it was a worthless mod.

Unless it was same dyno, same day, I wouldn't take 1-2hp result too seriously. Mine was done same dyno without unstrapping the car = 9hp.

Thanks guys. It sounds like a good mod even for automatics. With only one opposed.

Make it 2. Every car responds different, 1-2 rwhp is pretty low, but I would not expect more than 4-5 rwhp. Some guys got higher, remember a Dyno Tech can make your dyno read what he wants you to see. Not to say the guys who got 9-12 hp with them didn't but on average you will see nothing more than 4-5 rwhp.
