On a stock motor I've only seen a 2-3 rwhp increase with pulley changes, but when the pulley is done at the end of a heads/cam swap I've seen cars pick up around 9 rwhp.

Nice upgrade for those looking for just a few more ponies to edge out the next similar modded car (drivers race anyone?, lol). I agree. DIY is the best way to get this done. BUT most want things done in series of affordability. Consider also there are specialized tools most don't have or honestly know how to use beyond a screw driver to complete the removal/installation. Therefore...I charge $50 for install.

^ there not hard to ake off or install at all IF you have the right tools for the job, with all the tools it took me about a half hour to get everything done new belts on and all.
not worth it if nothing is done to your car but if your going for full bolt ons then i say get one but itd be better to wait until a cam install so you only have to do it once.
