Default Ordering Pulley soon!!!

Car is starting to feel a bit slow and im ready to do more stuff to it. I am gonna get me the underdrive pulley this week. But i have a few questions about them first. Oh and i have a manual.

1. Should I get the Crank and alternator pulley.
2. Do you gain more power with both pulleys.
3. Will I have problems with dimming if i get both.

I just went with the Crank pulley. I wish I could tell you if it made a difference but I got it installed with a cam and LS6 intake so I don't know if it alone made a difference.

Don't do the alt pulley unless you have a big stereo. I did the crank only. There is NO downside to the A.c. or lights, but at idle tooling around parking lots the power steering is much harder. If I'm in a tight spot for parking I put the clutch in give a rev to 1,200 rpm to make the wheel easier to turn. When driving the power steering is like stock. If I had to do it again I would in a heartbeat!! Worth the money!!
