Wait for pulley + belts to break in?

Just got my option racing pulley on today along with new belts. Does the ECU take time to notice change? I didnt notice as much gains as I expected maybe I should wait??

that's the same thing dude. I guess I am looking for the correct answer as well. I would think it would be an instant gain as the pulley is not messing with the A/F ratio or timing at all.

u can unplug your positive and plug it back in if u want it to reset faster...

but from what i read, the throttle response is better.

Maybe the belt tensioner was tightened?

According to UR's website it takes 8-10 days for the sensors to adjust.

So the sensors have to adjust to have the full effect? Id think that just the weight/size difference would give an instant change.

Just to let you guys know, I think I can feel the full effect of the pulley now.
$35 option racing pulley, $100 swap plus belts = great deal.
