for me, yes
ZPI came out with a new version of their light weight crank pulley, but i got no help at all on price break,etc. since i had the first version and it was giving me trouble
WAY too much noise,play,etc.

The NST crank pulley is better than ZPI, UR, AP, etc either way you look at it. It is cheaper, it gives better performance, it is available in different colors, etc. Pair that crank pulley with the accessory pulleys they offer and your gains go up even more

well they say the crank itself makes about 7-10. this is only my guess but id say the other 2 only add 3-5, i think they are more to make sure the accessories are runnin fine. i asked that question to mike from NST and if i can remember correctly (it was about 2-3 months ago) thats what he said. dont quote me or anything on it.

well you guys using NST go to the track and see what you do and the other to pullys don't gain anything but only what you lose.. i just think its a waste to get 3 when you can just get 1. but in all and all just go to the track and get some numbers and on that note i'll be heading up there this week or maybe next so keep your eyes open for better times i should be doing a mid pipe sometime this week so i hope to see gains from my header hopefully
