Not to open up a discussion about the pro's/cons of the UR pulley; but I installed mine yesterday. A few comments:

1. I did 99% of the install by myself (wife came out and stepped on the brakes while tightening the pulley bolt).

2. It was surprisingly easy with the right tools.

3. Setting the breaker bar on the floor works really well. Many things shot through my mind as i turned the key but after I did it, it makes total sense.

4. Performance gains; well no dyno but I do notice it down low and rev matching seems way easier.

5. All in all I think i'm really looking for F/I

 

If you're really thinking of FI, then the UR Pulley won't help. You have to uninstall it before you do any sort of FI application back to stock.

Yup, I've been doing some research on the vortech setup. Pulley will have to go. I just wanted to see if it was something I could do. Building confidence for the Vortech install.

 

Uh oh, better watch out with that pulley. Your engine will experience so much extra vibration and harmonic frequency that your car will end up flipping on the freeway.

I read it on the internet, so you know it has to be 100% true.

Pulley is fine for any turbo set-up. Bad for SC.

 

I was about to say, until I read your last sentence

bLo, enjoy your mod

.

 

Love the mod now.

next up; test pipes.

Anyone run them with stock exhaust?

 

what is FI?

 

fi=you're a fast integer

did you get your flame suit yet? they've got them on sale on eeeebbbaaaayyyyyy







fi means forced induction.

 

thank you, I have a spacer in my car, dc headers, full exhaust sytem Injen, Injen CAI, if I was planning to put a unorthodox under pulley with the new belt came with it, is that a good idea? or don't do it? if so do you guys know any place here in orance county or LA county that would install and they know what there doing?

thank in advance.

 

im running FI resonated test pipes and love em. also have injen CAI and a utech tuned. love the sound with the test pipes.

 

Do you think it's worth it if you have an 5AT?
