underdrive pulleys???????

[Turbodude06]

Ok i'm really bord and I was thinking of buying underdrive pulleys for my Teg, it seems like pretty cheep horsepower, but it also seems to me that since everything is spining faster, will the altenator, air conditioning, and powersteering pump go out faster? Or will my car be running higher RPM's all the time? Just wondering.

Well you are looking at a 1% increase in power if that. They really do not add hp, per se, but they kinda free up hp that was already there. At the end of the day a lil increased throttle response is what you're gaining. If you are running a big audio setup, your stock alternator may suffer a bit and you will notice when you are running the AC and high beams if u have lots of audio gear. But you ALSO do not have to underdrive at all... you could you just go lighweight. Unorthodox currently makes the lightest pullies (from a MAINSTREAM company).
