^^ It's not that it gives you more HP at all, it allows the engine to reach it's powerband more quickly. That then gives you the assumption of more horsepower, when in reality you're just hitting the peak power sooner. Like a lightened flywheel, it's not unleashing horsepower like say maybe header and cat does, but it allows the engine to spin more freely and quickly hitting that peak power potential faster. Make sense?

Maybe it gives you the placebo effect like I got when I put similar pulleys on one of my other cars.
That being said the key is that you are satisfied and you are the only one that has to be.
Enjoy!

10 whp and 13 ft lbs of tq. Now others have made less hp, like somewhere between 6-8 whp but the gains are there.

Look at the post above you for exelerate's information, he carries them..also there are other vendors that carry them, there are people always selling parts in the blackmarket section, take a look there also; ebay is always an option, but make sure you are getting the real deal when dealing with ebay...good luck
