Default Steeda Under drive Pulleys

Thinking about getting some Steeda under drive pulleys. Just looking for some advice on wether they are worth the money or not. I have a CAI,SLP axle backs,tuner,shorty headers,MSD ignition coils.

They are very common and arguably the best UDP's available. If you're worried about if they're worth it, pick up some used in good shape. Will save you money and get you ~10rwhp (I think). I plan to do them next. I have longtubes, offroad prochamber, muffler deletes, WMS HVIntake (as soon as I install it), and 4.10's. looking to squeeze more NA power out.

Had the steeda's installed with my gear this year. No improvement in mpg for me and not much in the butt dyno, but...
improved rev speed and throttle response.
If your stayin n/a, definatley worth it!

Definitely worth it, they'll add a few HP, improve gas mileage slightly, they're made in the USA and feature a lifetime warranty. The main thing that I always hear from customers is how much smoother/easier the engine revs.

We have 4 sets of 05-10 underdrive pulleys that are “scratch and dent” at our Florida location. They simply have flaws in the coating, the parts themselves are new and perfect, will work exactly like intended. Normal price is $214.95, we are selling these for $149.95.

Let me know if you'd like to get a set.

The UDP's are worth more than the aftermarket COPs and nearly as much as the shorties as far as power gains.

I don't remember feeling much of a gain when I first installed mine. Not saying they don't help, just I didn't feel or notice much of a difference.

The one thing I do notice is that when it's really hot outside I can notice the A/C doesn't blow as cold when the car is idling.
