Naw, glad to see they went to good use because I was just sitting on them. Probably will use your hard earned money to re-tint my ride

I highly doubt that UDP's will make ANY difference in your mileage. Since I've driven the exact same 420 mile run, stopping at the same gas stations, driving with cruise control at the same speeds almost every 2 weeks for almost 2 years I can tell you that you can do NOTHING to the car and still see swings of 4 MPG or more difference from trip to trip. There are so many variables I'd be out of breath. The 4 MPG that ronniegibson1978 is referring to is NOT UDP related.
only 3-5 rwhp gain and no gain in mpg. Where do you get your numbers from?

From a pile of forum members here and other Mustang forums. Most HP free-up mods are minor in nature since it simply involves either a reduction in rotating mass or lightening the accessory loads on the crank, none of which have any technical basis for anything beyond fractionional impact on fuel mileage. Do you think the #'s are otherwise?

Are there any negatives to using UDP's?

Zero...I've seen these UDPs for years, back to when we used to put them on contours, lol...I've never heard of a negative from using them (when properly installed, obviously)...

I do notice a bit of quicker revs, but I do have a good tune too.
A CORRECTION FOR THOSE WANTING UDP'S FOR THEIR '05-10

These pullies that I put on my car ARE NOT THE CORRECT APPLICATION! The crankshaft pulley is for a '99-04 Mustang and NOT for the '05-10 Mustang GT like the pic at Brenspeed shows. This was verified through Tony at Saleen Performance Vehicle. I bought mine used and the seller did not know this and we've come to a resolution but again, to those looking for UDP's and want the Saleen 3-piece set, you need THESE:



Hope this helps avoid the same mistake I made because the tech guy at Brenspeed named Chandler is a complete idiot and a RA-TARD that didn't even know this even after 3 calls to this tool BEFORE I bought these Red Anodized Saleen pulleys.
