Hey I was looking in the installs section for that, and I read somebody said it will screw your engine in the long run if your car is a daily driver. He said only use it for racing. Is that true? I am planning on getting it, but not if it eill fuck my engine up. I drive my car everyday. I thought it would actually help my engine. so is it good to get it or not? Thanks

they're talking about a crank pulley , otherwise known as a harmonic balancer, if your crank is out of balance even in the slightest it pretty much puts the whole motor out of wack. The alternator pulley is fine tho , doubt it will increase anything except the amount of color under the hood.. just my opinion on the alternator pulley

lol i dont think the pulley will make any gains. I think the only thing that spins that will make gains is probably the flywheel. try to get that replaced

Yeah I have it installed on my GTS and there is better throttle responce as a result. As far as horsepower not really any gains unless you have a turbo or supercharger.
