Stupid question
I understand the principle of underdrive...........butttt.
Does this pulley drop the speed of everything by 25%?
Alternator, power steering, AC.??? I assume yes, but assuming gets me in trouble.
If so, any negativee effect on perfomance? Such as lower Battery volatge, worried about PCM getting full voltage and such? Ac and or power steering. And the big one!!!!!!!!
How much power are we talking about......... Extra to my BUTTT..LOL
Thanks

Voltage is controled with a voltage regulator so i think you don't have to worry about that, but for sure you will send less amps to the entire system with the underdrive(it eill need more time to charge the battery)so if you have a sound system maybe you will not charge the battery completely after a trip.
AC. it will be not noticeable because of the air conditioning not working all the time ,
i think you will get 25 less wear to the components because of them rotating slower ..... this seem to be a good price .so maybe i will get it jusst to give it a try ..

Any thoughts on power gains possible?

My friend lives right down the street from C.A.T. power in Baldwin Park that looks identical to the one he picked up from them but he only paid $119 doesnt seem like that great of a group buy when you can get it direct for less money!!!
