Default Pulley Sets

guys,

I just got a set of Pulley from unorthodox, (have not install them) unorthodox state that between 8 to 15 HP are gain.

Does anyone have used them and experienced the gain in HP?

I am very interested in your results. I was told to stay away from pulleys becasue they can make you loose HP. I want to know the truth before I get them.

you two should do some searching on the threads. Lots of good information on the pulley issue. It's an easy do it yourself and the results are great. Some people freak out about the whole balancing thing.....but no worries. Get the pullies and you'll love them. You should also reset your ecu after the install.

Disconnect the terminals from the battery for about 30sec.

If I remember correctly, I believe that the battery must be disconnected for a greater amount of time, like 24 hours. There is also a process that can be found at technosquare's website. Good luck,
Steve

You will gain HP but you will lose RPM on other devices, most importantly, the alternator. Don't crank a 1000+ watt stereo system at ilde..
