I'm not even going to try to install this myself as i'm not mechanically minded, but i'd like to see how it's done and I have friends who are mechanically minded who could do it with instructions.

If there is no DIY how long would it take a mechanic to intall one?

I've been quoted $90 an hour labour and been told it may take an hour-an hour and a half!
Honestly , if it takes them an hour , find a new Mechanic.
put up on hoist (5 min)
take drives side front wheel of (5 min)
use air impact gun to remove pullie nut (5 min)
remove old pullie ,and put new one on . (5 min)
put nut back on and tighten (5 min )
(replace if need) and tighten alt belt (10min)
put wheel back on (5 min )
test belt tightnes (5min)
total 45min's
and thats taking it real easy.

oh and there was a DIY , but it was removed last month by it's creator.
Hmmmm

My NST experience

I purchased my underdrive crank pulley a couple of months ago, and have driven approx 10,000 miles since so this review is not "I just got it and it revs better".

I've thought about what to say, how to describe it, what the benefits are and all the blah blah blah. But if someone wants to know if they should purchase the product or not they need something a little more like...

There is no reason not to buy this product.
