And it weighs more than the stock pulley. What was wrong with the ASP?

The ASP is supposed to be both lighter than stock pulley and has the underdrive. The summit and the powerbond and SLP all weigh as much or more than the stock pulley

It depends on how much your getting that slp for. I just received a ASP from NEW ERA for $200 shipped.

I gained 14rwhp & 12rwtq with the SLP underdrive pully.

I went with the SLP because the ASP seemed to need the Katech tentioner to work properly without throwing a belt. Just my experience with them. I believe they have corrected this problem.

We've seen 8rwhp gains from the powerbond pulley. It's nice, but most of our serious cars we install because the asp pulley for the weight savings...
