i would like to get this, but replacing the alternator pulley with this one make any difference?
do you benefit more from the water pump pulley? i dont want to get this if it means the one i have allready will be better.
Looks like that pulley is designed for two v-belts rather than the ribbed serpentine belt on the FD.
seems to be a double belt pully,def on that
If you use your car on the road, I would not recommend underdriving the system .
The water pump cavitates at very high rpm, and the underdrive pulley is to try and avoid this. However, you then slow down the pump when idling in traffic.
