Just like it says should i get an unorthodox pulley? i already have a y-pipe, catback, techno ecu upgrade, and injen Cai. I want to do something next thats not that expensive and was wondering if i should do this mod or not. I believe that i heard somewhere on the org that pulleys for our cars are bad? But some people say its ok for our cars. Also how much would the gains be for this mod? any input would be appreciated.

 

i saw you go for it. every little bit helps. i bought one i just havent put it on yet.

 

do you about how much of a gain i might actually get? i know unorthodox site says something like 5-12hp and around 18 tq. This doesnt sound right to me.

 

I've heard people say you lose low end torque , torque moves the car especially off the line . Dont know if its worth it .

 

i need all the torque i can get. does any1 else have any opinions on this? also how hard will it to install myself?

 

Noticed a big difference right away. Make sure you change out the front crank seal when you do this. It helped out my gas milage +2 in town. You dont notice it after a while though. Make sure you reset/relearn the ecu.

 

I know its a lot of green but I drove a super charged max & it kicks a** screw it if your gonna play , PLAY HARD

 

is this a hard to do by yourself flashover? i mean im still considered a beginner at working on cars. It looks like its a hard fit to replace the stock 1

 

The big problem is getting the stock pulley off. You're gonna need a serious impact wrench to get that nut off. A breaker bar won't cut it.

 

It's not that hard of a task & if you remove the front right wheel & the plastic cover you have more then enough room to work. If you check look in the mod how too's you'll find pictures & instructions on how to complete the procedure.

 

Here's your answer:

14.4s@98mph with a 2.2 60' with the UDP

and

14.4s@98mph with a 2.2 60' without the UDP

so your saying Dave B, that it doesnt make any difference?

 

i didnt hit the track after i got my UDP installed, the butt dyno told me nothing, the car felt the same. i have always thought hey i would still rather have this mod than not, but after reading dave's post it kinda makes you feel like you wasted your money. and dont forget the extra belts you will need with the UDP (alternator & power steering)
