"Performance Engine Pulleys are a direct, inexpensive route to more horsepower. By reducing the size of your crankshaft pulley, your power-robbing accessories turn slower"

DONT DO IT your battery goes dead with SLOW charge,powersteering is not affected but a/c is
Not a good choice if your driving it on the street....great for strip use though...

if you use just the crank pulley you'll be alright. i have an underdrive crank pulley on my '00 and i still have the original battery. no chargin, a/c or power steering issues.

Diddo here Daddio.
I treid it with the crank and alternator pulleys, but it did not hold a charge very well.
So I went with just the crank pulley and everything is just fine.
When i used both crank and alternator pulleys I needed a different belt than the stock size.
When I used just the crank pulley I had to use a different belt than the stock size and different than the crank?alternator pulley Size belt.
It became very expenive when it was all said and done.
The 2 other belts are about $65 bucks a piece!
Pulleys were $90 bucks and I needed a new Tensioner pulley ($30) when i had them installed. It cost around $70 for labor! So add that all up and it really wasnt worth it all
