I have JUST the light crank pulley and it made a world of a difference. I had the battery disconnected while I was working on the pulley and some electrical stuff so I guess it took the ECU a couple of day to 'learn' the new revs. Theres a definite increase in power all throughout the power range. I could only imagine the addition of the WP and ALT will increase power even more. Honestly just the difference you feel at idle and shifting is worth it, I just consider the HP a cool bonus.

The stock pulley is way heavier than the NST one. I was playing with the stock one earlier today and dropped it on my foot...OW...

I did notice on my auto sedan when going up a hill it didnt do that stupid gear hunting .
