True...and those KR issues were supposedly ONLY with the older pre SFI Approved versions and were never really proven at that (maybe a potential installation and/or sprocket/timing chain issue?) but either way the newer ones haven't had any problems apparently.
As far as weight goes, that is a concern of mine. The March supposedly weighs like 5 pounds more than the ASP and while it has little or no affect on the pulley's performance it is still extra weight on the nose of the car, considering that I take out my cigarette lighter for weight savings at the track you can just imagine how I feel about an extra 5 pounds.

*Just kidding about the lighter.

i dont know of any1's expreience with SLP since its NEW...jsut came out a few months back...looks like a suficient design...i eman it serves the same purpose as the rest...and they claim the same gains as the rest...it is a 25%...the only difference i see with it is the "all-steel construction and extra tall belt-retention walls" which im wondering if the walls will even make a difference and if so what kind of diffrence might i see? or notice compared to others in the aftermarket?
