It is worth doing. Only thing is, you headlights may dim a tiny bit when at idle. Otherwise a great mod.

I put one on a few weeks ago and the only time i have any electrical shortage is if I'm running my headlights, stereo, heater, AND windshield wipers all at the same time. great mod.

definetly worth it. you have to take off the old pulley anyways so you might as well put the ud on. i noticed a little difference doing the pulley by itself.

No temperature problems at all. Only slightly dimming headlights at Idle. I recommend ASP. Texas speed has good prices on them
