What is the difference btw, underdrive crank pulleys and AEM tru pulleys?

 

AEM -- looks only, no crank pulley, just PS and ALT = no gains

UR -- crank pulley, PS and ALT, lightweight and slight underdrive = gains

 

Ok I got it, but What's UR? (Unorthodox Racing)

 

Yep, Unorthodox Racing. Good company.

 

or u can by a 50 dollar one off ebay like me (got a Megan Racing pulley)...basically a UR pulley w/o UR name, exact design, and its been working for the past couple of months. =]

 

As I've said in the past, I give credit to the bargain hunters. I am one myself when I see it appropriate, like my OBX SS headers instead of 1,000-dollar CT headers. However, just about every moving part of your engine is connected to that crankshaft in one way or another, and a badly weighted pulley (as in the density of the material is not even all around) could throw the balance off and shear the crankshaft right off. This happened to a member on V6P on his AV6 Accord.

 

Do NOT buy a cheap crank pulley!!!!

 

Totally agree with Pure Adrenaline. A crank pulley is something you want made of high qualilty. Balance is extremely important.

 

What u all think about BOMZ RACING, good company?

 

no idea, but UR is proven to be good

 

Yea i got one off ebay as well same aluminum material and all , just without the fancy name brand on it. Cant afford all the expensive stuff like that. and if a company sells something saying its safe for your car and the engline blows theres always court

 

i been search'n for Unorthodox Racing crank pulleys online . is there any other searchs i can do like 98 v6 accord to fit 00TL-p

 

I am also looking into the crank pulley mod. The site is http://www.unorthodoxracing.com/ but I am not sure if it is worth getting the pulley set or if I should just go with the crank pulley. What do you guys think?

 

ONly the crank pulley really gives you gains. THe others are more for show.

 

The crank pulley will net the most gains. However, the other two pulleys will reduce some loss, as well. The power steering pulley will spin faster than the stock pulley, and make the steering wheel feel a bit lighter.

 

And what happens when you sue, and the guy declares bankruptcy and disappears? Then you're SOL, and out even more money to have your engine fixed. It's not worth the hassle.

 

x2

this is one of the parts that i wouldnt go cheap on. it could lead to the most damage of all the parts you might consider sticking on to make HP.
dont go cheap here
