Default Slp pulley any good?

I want to get a pulley, i was told that ASP since its a 2 piece design, goes out of round at high rpms and causes misfires? Is the new slp pulley ok?

I'm running the Powerbond/SLP pulley, and it works great. I haven't heard of anybody having the problems that you mentioned with the ASP pulley though.

The SLP pulley is good because it has a lesser chance of throwing a belt due to the taller walls.

At 6800 rpm, mine had no issues. How much higher do you plan to spin?
