I have heard from many people that an aftermarket, lightened crank pulley can do some serious damage, especially the cheap ebay ones..............what about one from a reputable company such as unorthodox racing?........anybody rocking one of these?.......any reviews?

 

i kind of want to know this too cause i was about to buy one from a friend.

 

yeah, i want one b/c i am only running an alternator.......no a/c or p/s......and they make a single belt crank pulley that only runs the alternator........

 

bump for an answer

 

If you're not running any accessories, use a CTR N1 pulley. Costs about $65, and it's OEM balanced, and weighs like 1.8lbs.

But will the ctr one fit on a D16......?

No, I didn't realize anyone would want to put a lightened crank pulley on a D16. Sorry.

 

why wouldn't i want to put one on?.......it seems like a small price to gain around 8 hp or so

I wouldn't bank on you gaining 8whp.

 

true, probably more like 3 or 4 hp, but for 50.00 i don't think its that bad.....the only thing that i am worried about is that the pulley isn't balanced correctly and could cause problems down the road

I'd rather have an OEM pulley than 4whp.

I know, but every little bit counts when you have a single cam non-vtec
