Anyway, in my opinion this type of Cheap HP is kinda dangerous. Everything that is connected to that pulley was designed to run with the factory pulley. You are no doubt going to lessen the life of everything connected to the belt because it has to run harder. I know modifications are made to the engine all the time that increase hp and make the engine run differently to get those gains; however, your engine has sensors everywhere to make it run differently to compensate for those changes so everything runs nice and dandy. Nothing connected to the belts, except for the engine of course, has any type of sensor to help it self adjust to the changes so you are inevitably going to shorten the parts life.


Just my opinion though...
