UR Pulley set or just Crank Pulley?

Is it worth it to get the whole set of UR pullies or just the crank pulley? I am running 2 JL amps, a 300x4 and a 500x1. I dont want to hurt my audio system with a UR alternator pulley. Should i expect that much more "perfomance" with the addition of the alternator and idler pulleys?

depneds... are you looking for looks are just function...... if you are looking for looks, then go for the set, if not, all you really need is the crank...... you'll feel the difference,..... i like it!

UR tells you on their website not to get the extra pulleys if your running power draining stereo gear

ChuckP - I have one from the original batch of UR Crank Pullies that is the anodized blue, with Gates belts. UR stopped anodizing to reduce production costs. CP and belts are new in box, never installed. I don't think I'll ever get around to installing and the $150 would do me more good right now.

PM if you're interested.

WOW! Nice catch!!

I might have to give more consideration to installing it.

Post back with your results/impressions... ...especially changes to the feel (vibration/smoothness) of the engine in the upper RPM range.
