Yes it takes a good 2-3 hours for one man to install.

actually it really doesnt. i saw mine take 35 mins at the most the first time. and with power tools and taking things slow, it took myself about an hour to change it out. take the belts off, loosen engine mount (i didnt have to the second time around, but it would of helped alot), get the plastic covering the wheel well off the passenger side, and its just one stingy bolt to get off!

try to get it for less than 100 bucks and youre getting a good deal.

What does the UR pulley actually do? Is there multiple pulleys you can replace to gain HP?

There is a three pulley set (alternator, power steering, and crank) you can replace, however the only one that really gives gains is the crank pulley. It is much lighter in weight compared to the stock one, and it is slightly smaller so it will spin faster (underdriven) ...

It's a fast install anyone who says 2-3 hours is fucking pulling your chain. It should take an hour at most. THe problem is that most people don't know how to properly access the crank pulley

Are you talking just about the crank pulley or all three? I heard you have to remove the alternator to install one of the pulleys.

I am getting my UR crank pulley installed tomorrow so I let you know. Shop said they could do it in less than an hour.

Also they are going to be putting the it on the dyno to check out the A/F of the new program on my Unichip. Will get a custom tune if needed.

can you post the graph after you get the dyno? i would like to know what the UR put down. it said like 15whp on the cl-s6 online but i'm alittle skeptical. i'll be happy with 10whp across the entire powerband.
