Default Installed steeda pulleys

yup installed them last night, general thoughts, the engine revs a bit quicker, feels smoother, feels a bit quicker through the mid range power 2500-4000rpm. If they really improve MPG like they say then i say go for it, if not save the money.-Just my thoughts

They did make a little difference for me. Especially on the high end.

Both actually. Even though i couldn't feel an actual difference, it made a difference when i raced my brother. Before the udp's my bro (he has a 06 gt) would pull me ever so slightly once we hit 3rd gear...every time. After the udp's we were dead even through 3rd and 4th...every time. So, there was at least a definant difference in the higher gears.

i heard that those were a "good" bolt on that made ~7rwhp, more then most other bolt ons(not LT's or O/R h-X). Just things i hear, i might be wrong

Well, most people on here say they're a waste of time, but i think they're a great mod for the money personally. I agree they're not like a good set of long tubes, mid pipe, or tune, but they are also a cheaper mod too.

Cause when that extra 5rw kicks in it makes world fly by like a video game and the $200 pays itself off ten fold. Then there's the increased harmonic control on the crank...Who needs the last 80k miles from an engine anyway.
