unorthodox underdrive pulley

Has anyone had problems after installing an unorthodox underdrive pulley? I live in Florida and am concerned about overheating. I would appreciate hearing good and bad reports from members who actually have installed unorthodox underdrive pulleys on their cars. I have researched and read what I could on the subject but I want to hear from people who have actually "been there, done that".

30K on mine - no problems at all. I thought originally that the A/C wasn't as strong but that could just be me with a black car in the summer.

Your car will not overheat the waterpump is driven by your timing chain so the UDP will only slow down your AC/alternator/power steering pump.

Do you have an underdrive pulley installed and did you notice a change in how well your AC functioned?
