Majority of people will say they didn't feel any gain or it's not worth it... I put a March pulley set on. Noticed a slight throttle response from go.

I don't think it is worth it at all. If you decide to do it though do your self a favor and stay away from the piggyback set-up like March sales.

I have the 23% ASP crank pulley. They arent the crappy piggy back type, they replace the stock balancer. I got it from Summit even though they dont list it in the catalog. ASP is the only brand I would buy. They also make a pulley for the Alt, but I wouldnt go that far with my electronics. I have never had charging issues with the crank pulley. There are results somewhere on camaroz28 from the pulley.

I like my BBk and yes I think its worth it. IMO if you can get 1 extra Hp out of it, its worth it!!!! But thats just me.
