Anyone know about R1WURKS pulleys?
I have the Agency Crank Pulley and love it! So if the Overdrive Alternator Pulley will help a bit more I will get one as well from NST. Yes a bit pricey but if backed and a good product I would get it over an unknown one.

NOTE:
NST builds Overdrive Alternator Pulleys that allow the alternator to charge at a lower RPM. Very good for charging while at idle. Very good for customers who own aftermarket audio/video equipment, lighting, etc.
Others build Underdrive Alternator Pulleys. Which slow the alternator and do the opposite of the NST version. Such a pulley will free up hp in theory, but at a cost. In the case of the 1NZ, the amount of power freed may be 1bhp, no more.
Real HP and TQ gains are achieved via Underdrive Crank Pulleys, NOT Underdrive accessory pulleys. The crank pulley is the SENDER pulley and dictates how much power is sent to the accessories. Thus, the crank pulley should be looked at when looking to benefit from the properties of underdriving.
Thanks again everyone, good luck and have fun with your projects!

Mine has been installed.. I like it.. It is true what NST said, they dont charge well at idle, 12.3 volts, but it kicks right up to `14.1 with any kind of throttle.
i also have the fender bolts, I bought two sets and want more.. havnt seen them in a while..

I also realize that a year ago I posted no voltage drop agt idle, but as you can see by my recent post, this has changed..
It actually occured when I switched to an Optima batt. ..guess it dooesnt like the deep cycle batts at idle, but it still charges well enough like stated above.

Check out my comparison of Optima and Die Hard Gold batteries.
I have the Die Hard because I needed one and Kmart had them on sale....

Yeah, the specs are good forr die hard, why I like optima?
personally..
I spent 9 years in the interior of Alaska, the only battery that never let me down at 40 below zero was the optima,
so I swear by them, even in Miami

So, I finally got my alternator pulley installed. FLAWLESS. I was having a jdm horn put in and headlights, TBS....So while the bumper was down it made it easier for install. The PULLEY is really good. Drove it home for 2 hours from mech.
I had the A/C on, headlights. radio etc. NO PROBLEM.
