I don't believe I received this PM. Either way, installation should require less than an hour by a pro mechanic.

Good luck and have fun with all your projects!

Thanks for the quick reply ruimond. My dealership only charges $40 an hour on accessories and these actually fall under that category.

I would assume with the NST pulley since it is lighter and less rotational mass one who does more stop and go driving would benefit more from it than someone who does mostly longer consistant speed commute. Since it requires less power from a stop to go than it does to keep at a constant rotational higher speed.

And my last tank jumped to 35mpg. The most i ever got for months. I am hoping its not a fluke as there are many variables. But im awaiting to post my results again the next fuel up. If its the same than the pulley will pay itself of in fuel ecnomy alone especially if gas prices rise. I drive very aggresively so i can imagine if i backed off the throttle a bit i would get even better results. I hit redline on a daily basis.

Installed mine a few weeks ago, certainly can feel a bit more response on the lower end (went with the underdrive pulley). Noticed a bit better fuel mileage than before, not a drastic change or anything of the like, but anything is appreciated!

I ordered one from garm last week, its coming in a couple of hours. I killed some time by getting off the stock crank pulley manually with no impact wrench and well....I must be the strongest guy on YW cause that has got to be the easiest thing I've done on my car. I literally did it while lying on my back...ha! All the bolts were super easy for me to get off, that or my car didnt come out of the factory with the bolts torqued properly, lol. First time I've really been excited to see the weird UPS delivery guy. I'll post pix soon!

EDIT:

4 hours later ups arrives...then install! I havent gone to bed yet so I was too tire for pix, sorry. Anyways heres what happened when I first got in the car...

First thing I noticed was the idle was almost unoticeable. It felt as if my car wasnt even running. Definitely a lot quieter too, it was scary at first haha. Throttle is more responsive, the shifts are so clean and smooth in my auto. Power increase within the mid range, hrm...need to drive more tomorrow to see more...hehe.

Thanks NST, garm, and chinocharles' diy.

So did anyone see any HP gains with just the light crank pulley (not underdriven), and the OEM WP and Alt pulleys?

Thanks!

Really, the lite pulley frees up HP from the crank that would otherwise be wasted moving a considerably heavier pulley. Seriously, you could use the stock pulley as a boat anchor (albeit on a very small personal boat, but still you get the idea.) Also a plus on the automatic is it helps resolve "gear hunting" up hills.

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 .
