romer - where you/are you also an import fan? I dont mean that in a negative way, but a lot, a LOT of honda guys get pulley systems that are lightened over stock pulleys(not underdrives), and being the owner of an accord with a prelude motor swap with the lightened PS + ALT pulleys, it does make a bit of difference....
I gained a few horses/better throttle response just due to less drag on the engine and really picked up about 3 or so mpg on highway driving....
however...
on mustangs, which weigh a ton a have a lot more power than imports, the power that you free up isnt as easily noticed....( if you add 5 hp to 260, thats like adding 1.3% power.... if you add 5 hp to 100hp....thats 5% added power...)
with a mustang you're bettre off just getting an underdrive pulley set.....prior to supercharging, i had a steeda set on mine andthey worked great, better throttle response, less 'hanging revs', and maybe 1-2 better mpg cruising....

Nah the thing is I already have an underdrive pulley set (MAC). So i guess I was just looking for an excuse to buy something else than stock pullies. (don't have the originals).
