I just got the CR-Lite Pulley Set installed. Great product. Butt dyno says there's some gains in HP. Also, seems to me that it revs quicker. Oh btw, they were the BLUE pulley's I bought from a board member.

Wow! Blue ones were made for a very short time, they're pretty rare.
Thanks again for the review and the kind words, good luck with all your projects!

I have the 10% underdrive crankpulley on my 1.8 TS and it's a very,very great mod. Feels like a lot more horsepower.

Hi guys, i just installed the underdrive pully on my auto yaris!

On first test drive right after installing, i felt the engine idling is smoother. As i slowly accelerate to move off, i can feel the engine is having less "load" than before!

Now when i tried to apply more harder throttle, immediately the engine downshift and rev to the near the redline easily and happily!!!!!

All in all, the underdrive pully is giving me better low-mid range power!

P.S. I will like to take this chance to special thanks to Garm for his fast response on email, lighting fast shipping & nicely bubble wrap the pulley to ensure pulley is all round protected from any mis-handling by postman. Kudos to you, Garm!!
