The pulley I had heard that would give a problem was the old SLP one, havent really heard of any problems with the ASP pulleys.

This was an issues with people who bought pulleys 2 years ago. All of the issues have been corrected and its safe to buy one now. SLP and Whisper were the main culprits. I havent heard anything about the ASP pulley

On an M6 with regular stock accessories (NO 10000watt amp in ther trunk), it is not an issue. I only bought the crank pulley and it chargeds the same as before... (My idle is set to stock speed also)

It's a good, proven, mod.
