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.

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.
