Default Who knows the truth, AEM pulley set or UR, to crank or not to crank?

First of all I want to thank everyone for all the advice and info that has been posted here. Now that all the touchy feely stuff is out of the way let's get to business. I got into a late night parking lot debate over which pulley set is better, AEM or UR, The 6 million dollar question (US$) or $10 million (CAN$) question is about the crank pulley, AEM does not offer one WHY? because they feel that there are not enough gains to be had give the crank walk issue. This is what one person was saying. I want to field this question to the masses.

some insight.

search is your friend.

there are a few posts on this.

some guy removed the balancer shafts on his h22a, had plugs designed to cover the spots left open and says he runs fine.

some guys say the UR one caused problems.

search and read, believe what you want.

I had a UR crank pulley on and the reason I took it off was because a problem with the belts, even though I got the ones UR recommends.

I think it helped my 1/4 mile by almost .2 sec, though there are better mods to do then pulleys.
