Crank Pulley or Accesory Pulley?
I recently dropped a B16A into my EG6 and trying to fine tune it before I overhaul it for AutoCross next summer. I decided to go with Power Steering, however, it is extremely over sensitive. I had someone suggest to me to use an underdrive pulley to retard it.
I'd rather use an Accesory Pulley rather than a Crank Pulley, because an Underdrive Crank Pulley with a 7Lb Flywheel do not mix well. Anyone have any recommendations on what Accesory Pulley to get so I can retard my over active steering, or do Light Flywheels with Crank Pulleys do better in B-Series Engine than they do in K-Series Engine(When I say this, I mean is it ok to have both Light Flywheel and Crank Pulley, having both in a K-Series engine is an engine rebuild waiting to happen)?

Because the person who suggested is a muscle head who doesn't know the difference from a B-Series Engine to a K-Series Engine.

Re: Crank Pulley or Accesory Pulley?
Okay. Just wondering. I've found that if someone suggests something but seems to not be able to elaborate then it's a good chance their talking out of their ***. At which point I don't listen to them anymore.
Only time I've heard of anyone swapping out pulleys was to gain HP. Not to reduce power steering. Usually they just take it out altogether. I wish you could use the setup in a Prelude. That was the perfect setup for me.
