Im starting on my suspension. Just got my KYB AGX's in today, along with a progress camber kit. I need a realignment but, two places turned me down because they said my car was too low. What a bunch of b!@#%es. Luckily i found a place that was willing to do it. I HATE PEP BOYS AND SEARS the people there were dicks. Also, would my camber kit snap out of place if i took a hard turn? Just curious.

Get a cat!!!!!!!!
pulleys dont give you horsepower they free up horsepower you already have
and also explain how theyll mess up your electronics

How can it mess up your electronics... What does a lighter wieght pulley have to do with a Radio to Speaker combo you might have. Or your alternator at that?

-So if I put a lighter mouse ball in my mouse my sound will phuck up on my PC? :eh:

You're wrong about pulleys messing up electronics. My friend has three 12" subs and THEY mess up the pulleys. Somehow the electronics or maybe vibrations from the system interfere with the friction of the pulleys? Ohh yeah and I said 8-12 hp to the flywheel. I find that hard to believe myself but that was listed on the AEM site, so why don't you march yourself down there and yell at them. :fawk: Than again they list hp increase from their CAI at 10-15 hp yet that might give you 2 to the wheels. So I have yet to understand why everyone on here spends 200 on an intake as opposed to 200 on a pulley set which would give you twice the hp. But whatever floats your boat. Spend 200 on the cat if you really want hp increases tho (LOL).

wouldnt a smaller pulley messup the amount of power the alternator saps from the engine, thus making the total output from the alternator less than normal? I could see that messing up your tunes when bass hits or something.

Hmm I'm not sure...I don't understand the whole interference thing. IMO you have to decide what's more important..performance or sound.

Yeah I know. That's why I research and look at dynos. That's also why I'm not like everyone else who buys an intake blah blah blah and brags about how it sucks in COLD AIR!!! OOOOHHH!!! Isn't that bad ASS!!!
