Default Pulleys

hey, if i put an underdriven crank pulley and oversized alternator and p/s pulleys, will they negate each other and not add much horsepower?

I have a better idea, screw the underdrive/overdrive pulleys and spend the money on something else.

It's your money do what you want but I seem to remember reading that most manufacturers do not recommend running both. It's an ether or type setup. Ether Run the accessory pulleys or the crank pulley.
