pro: aftermarket pulleys r lighter, thus freeing up some power/hp

con: the AEM one is supposedly bad for the battery... had mine for a few months now, but still no prob... it would be a prob if u're running a system tho...

I have the aem pulleys on my 97 accord, running two 10's and when im at a stop light with my system up i can watch my tach and the needle drops. kinda scary, but i dont have any problems cause i dont blast my system. The power gain seemed minimal but i could tell.

so if you put pulleys on your car it will strain the battery?

Get Unorthodox Racing pulley set and you'll have less worry of burning out your alternator and draining your battery.

What would be the gains if installed in a 98 Accord with an automatic tranny?
