any down fall w/ installing pullies

I'm thinkin of gettin a set of UR pullies fer my car but i hear all this stuff here and there about harmonic balancing or what not, and im not sure if that pertains to the sound or if it'll harm the engine at all.....

does anyone know the specific cons to installing pullies?

I think you will be alright, and you can get just the crank pulley as it saves the power, pretty much the other two are for looks.

Yeah if you have a 6-Speed, don't run the pulleys and the Comptech Flywheel together, they don't get along together, at least not in allmotor's car... I have had an UR crank pulley on my Accord for a while and no problems so far...

your crank shaft will probably snap in half after about 20k miles or so.
