Default Unorthodox Racing Pulley

I put my Unorthodox Racing Underdrive Pulley on today and love it. I think it did add power and the engine seams to rev faster. I would say it is a good value for the dollar, a must add!

nope, no spring tensioners.

i think Unothordox messed up on the name...it should not be under driven.
it is just lighter than the stock one.

you will have to measure it, then take that measurement to a good auto supply place and have them match the size...

use a string to get the measurement and bring the origal belt so they get the right number of groves...

hmm... didnt know. if its not an underdrive that would explain why it worked with no slack left over

So Perrin 119 $ on Ebay and Unorthodox 151$.......... is it worth to pay more moeny for that pulley......

What are the wieght differences.....????

Unorthodox claims 5 to 12 HP...what do you think...if it was for real it is a good deal but I have doubts about those numbers.....

both are super light compared to stock...
the unorthodox is an underdrive pulley. might not be what you should use in some setups.

The Perrin is lighter and not underdriven. That's what I'm goin for. That way, all accessories work at their designed specs and I don't have to buy a new belt.

Ok two questions:

If its underdriven so it should make more power than Perrin pulley since perrin's has the same size as the stock one. Right ???

Ok....will the unnorthodox fit on a 1.5L Toyota Echo (Yaris)..... it should but anyway I had to ask......
