Anyone had experience with AEM Tru-Power pulleys on their RSX? Boy, the engine sure is a lot tighter in the compartment compared with the Integras. What kind of hp/ torque gains do you typically see?
If I'm running a medium amp for a sub, will the smaller alternator pulley make it too weak?
Just want some advice before buying them, and skinning my knuckles during installation :down:

 

I think the reason nobody is responding to this thread yet is because probably nobody can speak from experience on this issue yet. One thing you have to understand is that HAN is still in its beginner stages pertaining to the RSX and knowledge, it is certainly not yet comparable to the knowledge of B-series engines on this board.

Good luck, if I find anything I'll try to post back.

 

if u want power gains go for Unorthodox racing, its a little more but its worth it, the AEM pulleys never really did go for power, more for looks. Plus if u run a big stereo system i would not suggest getting any kind of pulleys.
About hp gains, good luck getting any u feel, no butt dynos for pulleys.

 

Sorry to be offtopic but, NSBTypeS, did you run that time on your 18's. I just noticed you got a high 14 time, impressed but you have the CAI, and exhaust. !8's would have slowed cho down.

 

no, it was on stock rims, and I got the CAI and Exhaust recently, those times were on stock rims with a SRI. I am hoping to run mid 14's this week at Sears point.

 

I haven't had any personal experiences with them, but this is what AEM claims on the Pulley Kit on the CL Type-S:

 

^^^ good graphs :thumbup:
