Hey, guys, quick question. Trying to decide which set of pulleys to get, its either AEM or 3-piece set Unorthodox racing. I heard many people used AEM, but anybody using 3-piece unorthodox racing set? They are kinda pricey($350). Are they worth it? And one more question: is pulley set hard to install?
Thanks.

 

Umm, we went over this before a number of times, but you will get more gain out of the unorthodox pulleys, no doubt, but they also mess with the "harmonic balancing" ( i dont know how legit this is) and can mess up your car over time. I personally went with the AEM pulleys because my car is a daily driver and i was able to get them for 120$ instead of a whoppin 300$ish for UR pulleys. It all depends on your budget and how safe you want to play it. BTW, i still felt a noticeable gain from AEM pulleys. They are dyno provin to add 5-5.5 HP across the entire curve. Then again, i heard UR pulleys add 7-9 HP....

 

they fixed the problem with the UR's, get'em...he AEM's dont do much more than look pretty

 

i still dont know whether it justifies the extra 100-200$ :thinking:

 

hmmm, my friend was also wondering about this. i guess AEM is the way to go.
i was wondering what was better? putting on pulleys or removing a/c and power steering completely?
