Default Pulley dyno numbers??

Hey guys, what were your gains from an underdrive pulley? which do you reccommend? Just want to see if it's worth it.

Is that what you gained personally or is that what you have come up with from various results of others? I still need to get a pulley and ported TB and I was wondering how much it would help.

i have an asp pulley but no verifiable results from it. the .1-.2/10-12rwhp is about average gains i've seen over the years.

pulley and TB is ~15-18rwhp

Wow!!! I never thought a pulley would do that much!!! I put an underdrive pulley on my LT1 car, and all it did was mess up my idle. Thanks, for everyones input.

I have no verified dyno results to show but after I installed my ASP pulley I immediately noticed a faster revving engine along with better throttle response. It's one of those little need to have mods that works really well in conjunction with others. I noticed a way better gain from my home ported throttle body especially at higher rpms.

Man, I have a Spec 14lb Aluminum Flywheel too, I noticed a hige difference in how fast it revved when I installed it. The first few times I got on it I hit rev limiter on accident...I cant immagine it revving any faster....I'm definitely getting a pulley now.

hate to burst your bubble but ported TB isn't that good of a mod, and people acutally lose hp, best just to buy a bigger one

uh, right...

i've seen plenty of ABA test to prove that a stock sized ported TB is worth 8-12rwhp.

its the BBK 80mm and the like that seem to loose power or not gain much, go figure.
