I have the agency power lightweight crank pulley and I love it.

It made my 1/8th mile trap speed go up by 1 full MPH.

Very easy install with an air compressor.

if anything, i would recommend going with NST pulleys. i've been running the 3-piece set on my car for some time now, and i think its a perfect way to add some extra hp and response to your car.

ZPI crank pulley is where it is @. Your stock pulley is like 4 lbs. and ZPI makes a 1 lbs. pulley wich is realy noticeable when you put it on. http://www.zeropointindustries.net/s...products_id=31

you should be fine... i know the agency pulley is the same diameter as the stock pulley, just significantly lighter, so it shouldnt be putting anymore strain on the alt. and the waterpump than the stock one does. i would think it puts less strain on them because it's lighter so therefore it takes less to move it.... but i'm no proffesional so dont take my words to heart.... i could be wrong.

What kind of gains would i be looking at with the setup that i have? (Intake and Exaust). Do you guys really think this is the "best bang for the buck"?

I think this is one of many "best bang for the buck" kind of things.

Assuming none of the catastrophic problems potentially associated with these suckers, they probably provide the best bang per buck. You don't gain or lose power or anything, unless your underdriven, so you feel "gains" equally across the entire RPM band.

Mods that affecting the air tract always receive complaints about losing low end or something and in some cases, dynos have shown immediate losses in torque under 3.4k RPM. When you lighten something, you don't get lighter as the tach climbs. You're like always.

If you wanna feel a BIG difference, get a lightened flywheel. After that, get some 16" Motegi Traklites.

Take the following formula and consider for yourself what is the best "bang-for-buck-mod"

Horsepower divided by cost in Dollars

An underdrive crank pulley is a better hp per Dollar ratio than any intake, exhaust, or header and that makes it the best bang-per-buck-mod but you do need to remember that a lot of these mods work together to get you to your final goal. The more the better
