Personally, I've never heard of them so I have no idea if they are piggyback. For over $200 they better not be. I just bought my Steeda UDPs. I also hear motoblue makes non-piggy back pullies and SLP does too.

UD pullies = waste of money.

ujslost · September 3rd, 2007, 01:33 PM

I disagree, plus they help save gas and put less stress on your engine parts helping it last longer. UDPs are a supporting mod. The more you do the better they work, but to say they are a waste of money is kind of dumb.

i still say waste of money
i dont know that they save gas, maybe less stress on crankshaft but more on AC and alt.

i was actully quit suprised in the wieght difference...i know that it doesnt really make your car super lite but just comparing the stock pullys is amazing!

nikbait · September 3rd, 2007, 06:27 PM

Will UDP's put more stress on other accesories like the a/c and stuff? What about overheating the motor?

ujslost · September 3rd, 2007, 06:41 PM

some ppl have overheating problems, and some dont

Blk01ponyGT · September 3rd, 2007, 06:43 PM

just leave the alternator pulley in the box if you want peace of mind.....but as for those ud pulleys..dont get em...steeda FTW

Badasstang281 · September 3rd, 2007, 07:00 PM

which one is the best to get
going to be going 3.73, Xcalibrator 2 and pulleys

xx9gt6xx · September 3rd, 2007, 07:08 PM

Just go w/ the Steeda Pulleys. And about those handheld tuners, waste of money. I had the X-CAL 2 on my GT and it ran like shit, those mail order tunes are garbage. The only way to make your car run right is w/ dyno tuning. They make sure your Air/Fuel Ratio is right, advance your timing, and work out any other kinks that may be present. Dyno tuning is a little more expensive but you know your car is tuned right...

HMUSN · September 3rd, 2007, 07:10 PM

^ you can tune your car in without a dyno tune.

it's called data logging with a wide band 02 set up

That's called not reading the manual or knowing how to use it. LOL

Never heard of overheating cause by pullies. Please explain.

ujslost · September 3rd, 2007, 11:50 PM

some ppl say its not as bad a problem on the 4.6, but on the 5.0 it was a problem the. the water pump doesnt turn as fast as it needs to.
