would if make sense to do the pulleys at the same time as the TB?
if u want. your just gona spend money for nothing. not like the lightweight pully is that much lighter than the stock ones. There's a guy on AZ who put one in and the next time he has his front end off he's putting his stock one back in and selling the pulley.

An underdrive crank pulley, to me, is a mod to do when you do your timing belt, since the crank pulley would be coming off anyway. Since it is, why not replace it with something that is intended to gain you a little performance? I don't know how effective they are on these cars though - my experience with them in the past has always been good. As for the other accessory pulleys, like a lightweight AC compressor pulley, don't waste your money. Not gonna gain you anything.

Dumb mod. No hp gain. If you think you can feel that 1 hp, its all in your head. Only worth doing with a TB job but still a lot of money for nothing.

Don't some people complain about added vibration or something with this mod?

This mod makes the 2.8 CHIP seem like a cost effective / resonable mod. If you are hell bent on doing it, just send me $80 bucks and then tell people you have it. No one will look or be able to see it anyway and your HP gain is less than the deviation onthe dyno, so no one would be able to tell that you don't have the .03lb lighter pulley on there. Or put a sticker on your car. Should have the same mental HP gain. Rock on!

Pointless. You might as well spend your money on strippers, booze, and cigaretts......
