DIY + $200 + 45 for the belt = reasonable $/HP. (My costs; HP reported/expected, did not dyno).
DIY is VERY doable and, frankly, wasn't very hard at all with the right tools and some muscle. I do concede the car is low miles and well cared for. 4' breaker bar/pipe FTW!!

My total UR experience cost me $275 for parts and labor. Not too shabby IMO.
Low end tq feels much better now. Pretty happy with this mod so far. And damn the stock pulley is a porky fella.
Tired... will report back in tomorrow.

Alrighty...
This mod is pretty sweet! I can't say I've really unleashed my car but it definitely picks up quicker. I think its just my imagination but it seems like my RPMs are lower than usual... (same roads, same speeds etc). Technically wouldn't the RPMs be higher for a smaller pulley? In the time is takes the larger stock one to make a revolution, the smaller pulley would've made more than 1 revolution... or is the tach reading something else.
Anyway, the pulley fit real nice and the belt was perfect.. thanks again Josh!
This definitely remedied my low end tq loss from the precat deletes... I didn't feel any "hard" shifting between gears. I babied it a little bit right after the install but once I got on the highway, I just let it rip. For all of you that don't have the precat deletes, you're missing out on a lot of fun on the highway
I "feel" like my MPGs have improved slightly too (according to my hack navi trip computer). Isn't 100% accurate BUT the numbers are higher relative to the pre-UR pulley numbers.

You're welcome and enjoy the new mod.

:lol:
Nah! Both mmade22 and I are pretty scrawny, but he's got youth on his side, so he did the muscle work.
jmkiang- I agree on the shifts; mine feel much smoother. Speed is a function of gear ratio and RPM. So, in a particular gear, at a particular speed, your RPM should be exactly the same. What should change is that you get to that RPM (or speed) sooner.
