Default pulley question

Hey everyone, new to the site I have a 2003 silverstone 350z. I have been looking at getting a UR Crank pully, now my question is how much of a difference is it just getting the crank pully in hp vs the 3 pully kit eg. ac powersteering included

any ideas?

pretty sure pullies don't give hp, they just free it up...

Read the UR whitepaper, they freely admit that most of the gain comes from the lighter crank pulley. The additional gain from the underdrive and the accessory pullies is minimal by comparison. That means - get the oem size lightweight crank pulley.

Pulleys were a popular mod in 2004 when available mod choices were limited. There are better alternatives.
