Default Underdrive pulley on the V6?

I was looking through my Steeda magazine this morning and saw they offer Underdrive pulleys for the GT,
has anybody seen them for the V6?
How much do they cost?
What sort of HP could i expect?

Ive got my C&L intake with my 91 tune but i still want more power, and since i am no where close to having enough money for an X charger, let alone the Twin Turbo setup i want, im want to millk my car of every last HP i can lol

Thanks guys!
-Chris

Yes, steeda makes a v6 pulley but im sure others do too. I'v asked this question on the forum before and someone told me they dyno'd their car, then put the pulley on and immediately dyno'd it again and got about 5-6 hp increase. However, i beleive the pulley is 200 bucks. Maybe 300 im not sure if i remember correctly. Just do a google search and you'll find it

OP...save up a few more bucks and get gears.

Going to 373's feels like you just added 50+ HP...maybe more.

A tuned 4.0 with gears in day to day, light to light driving is VERY close to a stock GT. I was within 1/4 second of my old mans factory fresh GT on 4 straight runs. Yes, he ended up 3/4 to a full sec faster int he quarter...but how often do we hold the accelerator down until 100 mph?

Gears are THE best bang for the buck...some mods are not about power, but driveability. Gears are one of those mods.
