2k-2k1 Auto Max's With UD Pulley Step In

Since Im going to end up keeping my car, i want to "mod" it more. one of the things ive been thinking about is a Underdrive Pulley... I have a couple of questions before i buy one... Is the underdrive pulley worth buying? i have heard that they dont do anything and others say that it helps the automatic REV quicker and "frees" power. secondly if it does free power is it noticeable throughout the powerband? if not the entire powerband around what RPM will you start to notice the car freeing more power/REVing quicker? i know there are a couple of people making UD pulleys for our cars ive seen some as low as 90-250$ which brand do you guys recommend?

Any Input would be greatly appriciated

I have Unorthodox pulley. Don't expect noticeable hp gain from a pulley.

I think it will only improve your low end.

i have unorthodox as well. it definetely made the low end more responsive but its affects rarely show up on a dyno. might be a different story if we had a set of pulleys but i think the udp is a worth while buy and is just part of the puzzle.
