Arrow Those with or have had UR Pulleys --> Please vote

Everyone has always "heard" horror stories about UR Pulleys, although I could be wrong, it's all speculation..

So anyone that has had or has UR Pulleys please vote.. Let's see actual numbers of people that have ever had problems with UR Pulleys and who hasn't..

If you have had problems please chime in with your problem..

The majority of people haven't had problems on this forum as well as on v6p, however when I was poking around and checking out other forums during the upgrade I found a horror story on UR's. This guy has an AV6 and all of a sudden he felt the power drop in his car (or something along those lines).

Here is the thread: http://v6performance.net/forums/showthread.php?t=45890

Here is the image:

Hope this helps! This is the only bad case I have seen with UR Pulleys.

My decision problem isn't based on 30k miles though. I'm keeping my car for at least 100k. I wonder what the long-term effects are.

I had about 10k w/ the full UR pulley set when I was NA. I now have about the same w/ the 12v UR crank pulley and the S/C. No problems to date.

I had the same concerns and held off for a long time. Last summer I went ahead and installed the UR crank pulley. Had it on for about 5,000 miles with no problems.
