No puller is required. Once the bolt is out the pulley comes right off.

There's quite a few threads around here with removal/install strategies. If you have an impact wrench, that may be enough. If you don't, then you'll need a breaker bar and possibly have to fabricate a tool to hold the pulley (like I did).

strong rope, is the "tool" in question, tie it to the front control arm.

I'll remember that next time. I take a pair of pliers and put the handle in the pulley holes, and gently turn till the pliers stop it....lol. Not the best idea, I know, but it works :p

sorry for the wait guys havent had time to install it. But today i found some time after work. took 15 mins to take off the oem and instll the new. the only two mods on my car are aem cai and mi lightweight pully. car vibrates a little more at idle as expected since theres no rubber dampener like the oem one. definatly feels like the car is lighter (less rotational mass). i noticed that the mid to high range rpm is were you feel the difference. im happy so no complaints. THANKS GARM! another great product.

So what does the pulley do? I know it is lighter, but is that the only benefit?
