And before we get this question, let me go ahead and address this issue....
I know that originally we talked about doing a crank pulley and alternator pulley... we have since chosen to go a different route...
We will offer our 10% Underdrive Crank Pulley as a solo item. This pulley is roughly 70% lighter than the OEM pulley and will provide the best mix of performance and daily drivability for our customers. You will see better HP and TQ delivery, better throttle response, better gas mileage, and absolutely NO headaches or worries about accessory output.
The Alternator Pulley has been scratched, and will likely not be offered as a production item for the xD. This is due to the fact that removal of the alternator, and installation of a new pulley, have shown to be a big pain! Spending the great deal of time and effort on this install, or paying a shop for this installation, would likely turn most people away from this mod. In short... an alternator pulley is probably not worth the effort for 90% of you out there.
So get ready to pick up one of our crank pulleys and enjoy the great benefits at a rock bottom price!!!

No plans for a WP pulley at the moment.

Its like best bang for your buck. Ii felt a difference in the first 2-3 gears. Its worth the investment. The only regret was not getn the limited edition colors when we got the group buy price lol

Unfortunately, we can not offer a coupon or a discount at this time. This pulley is often called The Best Bang For Buck mod for this engine. No other mod offers this much HP, TQ, and throttle response at this price.
We have a handful of these pulleys in stock, and once they are gone we may not build another batch due to lack of demand and support from the community.
Good luck and have fun with all your projects everyone!
