Ya make sure you have a 3 bolt puller for the balancer. When I was doing mine one of the bolts to the puller broke and I had to air chizzle my balancer off[:@] not a fun experience. The pullies will add some noticable power. also when torqing the crank pullie make sure your car is supporter with ramps and jack stands just to be safe. i almost had my car crush me one time, but the ramps stopped it. it was like an inch from my face.[sm=jawdrop.gif] I think I shat my pants. lol

I think that I bought a balancer puller from NAPA. Be ready to buy different belt sized by eyeballing trial and error or whatever. That's what I had to do with my Steeda UDPs. Be ready for your engine to rev easier!

Leave the belt on for the water pump pulley, that way it won't move as much. If it starts to, put a seond wrench on one of the other bolts or jam a screwdriver up behind it.

Put the car in 5th gear and put the e-brake on for the crank pulley. You're going to need a breaker bar to start that bolt. Then use the 3-arm puller from there.

For the alt. pulley you'll need an impact gun. It's simple.

You don't NEED an impact gun, it'll just take half a lifetime to get it off.

Anyways, before you install the pulleys and possibly waste your time for a handfull of HP if that...make sure you don' thave PIGGY BACK pulleys. I hate myself every day for doing it, but I guess it's okay, I plan on having a SC soon.

Yea but every little bit of HP helps!! Dosent matter if it IS 2 or 3. And i would try to use and impact wrench on the balancer bolt and not a breaker bar. It takes 3 seconds for the bolt to come out w/ a impact wrench.

BBK ARE piggy back. i have a set of those i never bothered to put on.

Dan04COBRA

I believe they offer a dampner/pulley combination as does March. I could be wrong though.

The02GT, you're right. Every HP counts, but when you'll be sweating and busting knuckles or hard earned money on a poor product, if you only spent $30 more you could have yourself a set of UDP's that will net you significantly more HP than piggy-backs.
