Does anybody use or know if the power pulley kit offered by neuspeed is worth the money and is reliable for its 5-7 HP gain?

well i want a pulley kit also but they say u actuallly lose power rather than gain it

 

The logic is legit on how these things work, but I would not do it if you are trying to realize a horsepower gain. Basically it is creating less work for your engine by under powering all of your components (smaller pulley ratios). That works, but it is not a noticeable horsepower gain and it is not nice for your car since you under power your Alternator, A/C, Powersteering. Again underpowering everything is not noticeable, but when your battery goes out every 4 years instead of 5, your A/C is not quite there, or your powersteering pump fails a little sooner, when you put real miles on your car (200000) you start to think was it worth 5 horsepower at the engine (nothing noticed at the wheels)?

So I checked the link, slightly different from other ones I have seen, but still the same thought, only it is all underpowered at the crank. Smaller pulley, shorter belt. Your car was engineered the way it was for a reason.

alright thanks that definatly changed my decision on that... better to just keep that 200 and save up for something else with more significant gains... thanks

 

StepUpProductions have a dual side mount intercooler kit, which one is it and maybe u should use that money and upgrade to GIAC big injectors if u havent already
