757- your rw #'s seem kinda low for those mods- you should be over 300 on both??

They are right on par. I am auto. I put down 250 bone stock. 37 hp with an intake, delete plates, axle back, and a tune seems good to me.

I'm getting mine tomorrow saids Brenspeed. Hope it doesn't cost to much to have them installed. I'm thinking of letting one of my friends do it at work.

So Cappi what do you think I will put to the rear wheels with my car identical to yours with the C/L CAI with Brenspeed tune, Pullys, and mac axlebacks?

Good responsse hawgman, lol.
I have never heard any real complaints. I think it was you who noticed maybe a very slight decrease in A.C. performance, but not a problem. (I havent even had a chance to try my A/C yet.)

Ive had mine for a few days, no chance at work to put them on. Go figure 3 weeks of being slow as heck, soon as my pullys get there we get busy.

I Lucked out and found and someone who did'nt want thiers after buying an electric water pump sold em to me for 110. I would have been an idiot not to take the offer immediatly. Forums are great! It was a later planned mod. Steeda's new in box.

Under drive pulleys is the only mod I discarded simply because my mechanic, whom I trust very much, is not a big fan of them. He doesn't like the idea of messing around with the alternator.

Why did he not want to run both mods? Pretty simple to do. Just change belts. And performance wise they pair up nicely together
