Pulleys

I bought a set of pullies from ebay. Not the Bomz ones but these ones.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=38656

The quality is good, they are lighter than the stockers, and 1/5 the price of the Greddy kit. Also includes a new belt. I see no reason to buy something for 5 times the price for it to have a name brand on it.

I bought a set off ebay for $40.00 w/ belt to enable me to remove the airpump since I'm running a RMP. I did not notice any gains what-so-ever from the butt dyno.

But they look pretty though!!!!! For $40 you can't lose.

you will not see any HP gains with these pullies(no matter what brand). Now if you get a main pulley, you might get some gain, but you will never be able to feel it on the "butt dyno"

what makes you say you won't gain any hp from them? They underdrive the water pump, eliminate the air pump, and are lighter. I'd say a definite 1 or 2. Eliminating the air pump alone is making things easier
