i put the pulleys on last week and don't feel sqwat. well maybe a few HP but not much. But the car responds better now in the steering and accelerator. It's a mod thats worth it but don't expect much. It's amazing how much lighter these pulleys are then stock though

The only thing I noticed from my AEM pulleys is my headlights dim at idle. Since the alternators is spinning slower it's output is dropped a tad. They do look nice though.

In my old car when I replaced the battery I went ahead and went with a higher wattage. You think that would help compensate for the pulleys?

 

ya, and it wasn't easy. I had to remove a motor mount and drop the motor to get the belts on. It took me about an hour. And be prepared your gonna need a 22mm - 23mm on the alternator pulley.

 

So when the headers and sways would be in with the AEM pulleys?

Drops the motor mount??? You crazy? How the hell am I going to do that? I will just get someone to do it I guess.

 

how much are you guys paying for pulleys? the only real reason i got them was i got them for 80$ on ebay.

 

I ended up not getting the sways for now. I kinda want to wait to see if new konis will do the job for me. I really don't want that much more of a rough ride then I already have.

 

$136 is the price on AutoCarParts.com

 

it's not that hard, you just have to put a jack under the motor then remove the mount. It's quite simple actually. You can have someone else do it but don't expect it to be cheap, this might turn out to be a 300$ pulleys + installation job.

 

Ya its gonna cost 180 to install.

 

i feel bad, i gave my buddy 20$ to help me out


if you can try to do it yourself do it, if not kiss 180$ good bye.

 

If I recall correctly, one of the pulleys was held on with a reverse threaded nut. You may want to keep that in mind if you're installing them yourself.

Ya I think I will just kiss the money good bye because as much as I like doing my own installs I don't want to end up with me droping my engine.

 

you don't really have to drop it though, just put a jack underneath and remove the mount, it's real easy

 

Do you have AIM or ICQ?

 

no not here at work, sorry but i do at home scotendpy try me sometime\

i knew i shoulda gotten pics of the install

 

Ahemmm,

Simple Question:

This is not comptech how will this hold against my warranty?

Also, how much you think for a mechanic to install for you>?

See I would perfer to do it myself so if it ends up sucking I don't have to drop another 180 to have them swaped out. I will msg you tonight.

 

when are you guys gonna learn, comptech isn't covered under warranty either. It's fine on your warranty as long as it is not what causes the damage. If your comptech headers some how fuck up your motor, it's not gonna be covered under warranty. So they will be fine on your warranty as long as they don't cause problems which they won't most likely.


as for install i've seen anywhere from 90-250$

i'll hopefully be around i should get off work here around 5 but then i have to leave for class from 6-10 but i usually leave real early

 

I checked the HELMS man, we have few pulleys, Which ones get replaced by those AEMS?

Thanks

I buy comptech because I thought they were the only certified after market vendor for honda/acura. So what your telling me is I can buy anything by anyone, comptech's agreement with honda / acura means nothing? I thought because these parts were certified for honda/acura they did not infringe your warranty or if something did go wrong they would be covered. I guess I am wrong !

power steering and alternator

 

It depends. My dealership said they will cover most comptech parts just like factory parts. They're treating them like a dealer installed option. Like a steering wheel, spoiler, and what ever else. But, that's a dealer covered warranty, not a manufacturer warranty. So if my headers catch on fire and burn my engine. Then, Acura of Bellevue would cover the damage... not Acura.

 

sweet, i know some dealers cover them, but most don't

 

Closer,
How do you like Acura of Bellevue? I'm assuming there's only this one in Washington. I got mine at Hinshaw's and it's ok but I like how Bellevue displays the Comptech stuff to let people know that it's available. Also, I hope you bought your car form that fine-ass blonde salesperson. My goodness, if she was my salesperson, I would've ended buying 2 cars!!
