Hi guys, and gals, there are some im sure.. any how, i need some help, and suggtestions! i have a 93 civic ex/coupe, and, i have read about flywheels and pulleys each giving you about 30whp.. now, if this is true, i totally want to put those on! but, i have also read of some draw backs, like cars dieng when a/c is on and stuff?? now, i use my car for everyday things, and a race here and there, ya know, so, i guess if any one has any brands or thoughts on what i should do, i would be very gratefull for any feedback! thanks everyone!

 

30hp from a lightened flywheel and pulleys being installed? Could you get me the specs on those and where I can buy them?

I used to have underdrive pulleys on my Integra and never ones did it die from the AC being on. Maybe, if everything was on the lights would dim slightly at a stopsign at night, but never die. You arent going to get 30hp from installing those though.

I dont know if you in the market for it, but I have some ocean front property in Arizona forsale. Ill let it go for cheap.

you wont get those kind of numbers from pulleys and a flywheel on a hond, you would probabloy get 2-7 hp. pulleys wont really effect drivability but a a fly wheel that is to light will. the function of the flywheel is to keep th crank spinning wile the motor is not on a power stroke (keeps the cranks momentum). so if it is extremely light i suppose u would stall once in a while just save up for a swap

 

hmm, so you think the makers of this stuff exagerated abit or something?
oh, and no thanks on the property nice to offer though, how cheap? haha

actully, a beach is on any body of water... are there no lakes in arizona too? so right back at ya suckers! hahahaha

 

and one of the two sites i saw up to 30hp gains.. http://www.street-beat.com/undrivpul.html

 

try to use your brain man..

the website you are reading is a retail storefront, they make money off of the product purchases you make from them.


so wouldnt they be more likely to...oh, i dont know....exagerrate their results and claims?

no single mod will get you a +30 horsepower gain (besides a turbo or spray), unless you wanna drop a 350 in or something..

Actually, I found the car to be harder to stall with the lightweight flywheel on.

 

jeez, sorry teen, i was using my brain, thats why i asked here.. i thought might not be its all cracked up to be, thats why i asked here! instead of blowing $400 on a new light weight flywheel,.....
