What can you expect? Nothing extreme actually, faster throttle respones and faster revs from 1k-4k... it will get you to your powerband slightly faster!
Best place to buy?
Ebay?(wait around)
Anywhere but vividracing.com! (Gave me big time hassle with shipping)
Other brands?
Is there even anyother brand other than Perrin?

Here is the problem with aftermarket pullies:
your stock crank pully has a rubber grommet in the hole of it, this is also known as the harmonic balancer. I used to be a honda owner, and plent of people had problems with this. The main job of the harmonic balancer is to absorb vibration....same concept as liquid filled motor mounts as oppposed to urethane mounts....the only problem is when the vibration isn't being absorbed by the harmonic balancer, guess whats absorbing it.....your motor...you WILL hear a rattle after a while. I've never seen an aftermarket pulley that comes with the rubber grommet, but until i do...no pulleys for me.
Once again, for those of you that have ran urethane motor mounts ever....think about how your car was before the mounts, and after....when you have liquid filled mounts, the mounts absorb all the vibrations, but with urethan mounts, your car and you will feel some good vibrations

Vivid sells it for 135... I sell it for 125 + shipping at www.lastlookcustoms.com You need to go to gallery and click on engine parts for sale to see it. I dont have a shopping cart setup. The less I spend on the website, the lower I can keep my prices. That is why I dont have a shopping cart set up. PM me if you are interested...
