AEM pulleys? Lower voltage?

I have the AEM pulleys on my car and wanted to know if they cause the car to have lower voltage than normal. A lot of people say that with a standard setup the voltage is close to 14.4 volts. Does the pulley affect the voltage?

The UR Ultra SS crank pulley affects voltage. Do the AEM's underdrive at all? If so, I'm sure they decrease voltage.

I just spoke with AEM and it decrease the voltage. The pulley is about 30% larger which means the Alt is not spinning as fast. They did say unless you have a lot of power(which I do) the difference isnt too much while driving. I'm removing mine only because I'm pretty much done using mar car for racing.
