NONE!
Only good things happen:
More rwhp and rwtq.
Longer life for your accessories.
You can add it to your sig.
You will go faster.
Unless you are running some major aftermarket eletric power sucking accessories, don't worry...

ASP's underdrive pulley is a great piece. First I got ripped off by SLP when I bought one of their's for my '99 SS car. SLP's pulley gave everyone's LS1 car knock retard between 48-5000 rpm. It actually hurt performance. The best part is--they wouldn't admit it. Mine's still sitting in a corner of my garage--the "junk" area. Installed ASP's unit--KR gone. I have the same one on my '02 SS now. SLP =

Damn I am fighting a KR issue and also have the SLP pulley. Guess what I will be doing in the near future ![Grin](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_grin.gif)
Edit
Sorry to get off topic but can someone explain to me how the pulley creates KR

Somehow it's creating resonance or slight vibration and pcm is picking it up...The units were probably improperly balanced themselves upon manufacture. You know, "quality control" issues vs. "we'll send them out anyway, and maybe they'll be dumb enough not to know they're causing problems"....... WJ.

Let's say you put the pulley in, gives you 10rwhp. Then you add a huge heavy sound system that adds a good amount of weight to your car.
The added weight from the sound system will cancel out the added HP from the pulley.
Just my 2 cents.

I have an ASP, but the older model which I have does not have the same harmonic dampening abilities as the stock one so I've been told. That could very likely diminish engine life in the long run, especially if you spin the motor to high rpms.
