Bomz underdrive pulleys?

I have a question about Bomz performance products. I don't know much about them. Are they good products? I wanted to get a new pulley. There underdrive pulleys for 99-02 TL-P's are 55.00, sounds pretty cheap. Is that a good deal? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I wouldn't buy a cheap replacement for such a vital part. You might screw up royally if you make the wrong decision.

The UR pulleys have been proven to be great. I can't think of any complaints on this forum. Some members have had them installed for nearly 100k miles with no adverse affects.

Agree... I wouldn't mind sticking an accord CAI in but I wouldn't go as far as the pulleys.

Even though the price difference is night and day.... I would still pay the extra price... imgaine the cost of the damage IF the part actually didn't match perfectly.

What's the benefit of a crank pulley on a '02 TL?

ALOT lighter than stock, so it takes less power to turn, meaning u get about 10 extra hp at the crank

Closer to 10hp at the wheels depending on your other modifications. And that gain is throughout the powerband, not just up high like an intake or headers.

Pulleys make a huge difference. Like steve said, all the way across the powerband. Didn't take long to feel the difference, I'm guessing about 10 ft of burned rubber did it for me!
