Worried over nothing? Or Reason to worry?
So I finally got the balls (and money) to order the UR underdrive crank pulley for my car. Bad news is: my trusted mechanic is out of town for quite some time. I want to get it installed as soon as I get it but I want it done right. I know the other mechanics at the shop are good but he's always worked on my car and I guess I'm just used to being able to trust he'll do the best work on my car. Is there anyway an experienced mechanic can screw up the install or am I just being paranoid?

Not a whole lot to it. If the other guys are ok then you should be fine.

Can't decide on the underdrive or regular diameter - will the underdrive cause issues with an audio system? Also considering the 105k on my car

Sorry for the hijack - I agree with fuzzy.

All depends on how big of an audio system you have. If you have under 1k watt stereo you wont have a problem

Meh. I'll take you guys' word for it. It's gonna be $80 so I guess it's not that complicated.

It's not complicated at all, just takes a little time. Go for it! You are going to love them. I've had the UR crank pulley for years now and it really does make a difference.
