are you discrediting the use of this modification? (crank pulley)
I think you COMPLETELY missed my point. I'm saying you can't put a mod on like an intake and say, "WOW, my car has SO much more power now"! The amount of power gain from something like an intake is small enough that you can't tell just driving the car but you can measure it on the dyno. I never said there was no power gain or it was a bad mod.
Re-read my post, I never discredited this mod. in fact, just the opposite. I said that just because you don't feel the differance in the power doesn't mean it's not worth doing. It is all of the bolt on mods that add 5hp here and 10hp there that add up to make a significant gain. I am deffinitely getting one. As a matter of fact, I ordered one within about 7hrs of it being made available. This is yet 1 more part we've been looking for as a community for a LONG time and nobody else would make for us. I made several attempts to get Unorthodox to make a light weight crank pulley for us and they had absolutely no interest in helping us at all. -JoeB
