The ASP pulley seems to be the most popular by far. I ordered one because it has a 25% reduction while many others are only 15% or 20%.

I like my ASP pulley.

Make sure you get the overdrive for the alternator. This will bring it back up to factory speed and prevent charging problems.

you may want to get a "Larry Pully" from asp also. It replaces your tensioner pully with A higher lip on it to prevent the belt from slipping off. Some people have had this problem.

It's a smaller than stock pulley that will bring the alternator back up to stock rpm so your battery won't go dead. If you have a M6 and don't lug the engine below 1500rpm I doubt you will need it.
