I've used the Powerbond under drive without issue for 15 years on multiple builds and love it!

ATI makes an amazing pulley with that being said I have used Powerbond on my last two cars with no issues, just boils down to what your willing to spend.

ATI for that 1000 hp engine. I have one on my 99TA.

ASP isn't a dampener and can allow a bad harmonic that can cause issues. I have an ASP on my 91 RS. I wouldn't use the ASP on a 1000hp engine.

ATI for sure. ATI and Fluidampr are the only true actual harmonic dampers out there from my understanding. The others are just a "pulley". I could be wrong on that so don't quote me but when asking around that is what I was told. I've always had amazing luck with ATI and getting "blem" units from them for a discounted price. Product showed up to me looking 100% brand new. Worth a call to ask or check their eBay store.

ATI Performance all the way. The best thing about ATI Performance is that if the ATI Dampers is causing problem for whatever reason,they will repair your damper with a much better durometer rubber.

There is a reason ATI is used on GM Performance Engines, the COPO Camaro Engines, and other things. ATI is proven and lasts.
