Crank Pulley + Body Kit ?'s

Im new to this forum and ive had my '99 tl-p for about six months now. The only mods i have are my sound system and cat back exhaust w/ magnaflow mufflers.

My question is about the crack pulley and my sound system. I have 2 12" type s alpine subs + amp + head unit. I believe it runs 450 w and is this too much to have the crank pulley? Im not planning on getting it yet but i was curious, im getting v2 intake and xs headers first.

Also, Ive seen a body kit in the photography forum that i cant find the name of. its small, just skirts and a small pieces on the front and rear bumper. Not sure if this is the enough info to name it but i saw it several times so im hoping its common.

thanks for the help!

your fine. how often do you go full throttle with the stereo all the way up. if you are really worried about it get a power cap and call it good.

you could always just get the crank pulley itself,if you ever plan to upgrade the system.

i recommend getting a power cap either way. it will save your alternator and be and extra boost in electrical power.

UR offers 2 crank pulleys:

1. Ultra S Crank Pulley - underdrive lightweight pulley that slightly underdrives the accessories (~5%).

If you have a large stereo system (over 600 watts RMS) or a supercharger then you go with the 2nd option.

2. Ultra Sc Crank Pulley - stock diamter pulley with no underdrive; just lightweight

Most of the gains are in the lighter weight, not the underdrive. To be safe you could just get the Ultra Sc pulley. PM me if you need either.
