If/when I get the pulleys I will end up getting the ALT pulley w/ it because it helps correct the ALT rpm to keep the voltage from dropping... -Am I right on that one?

EDIT: WHere'd you get pulleys for $53?!?!

I was told that if you are running something from your battery, like a stereo system, then you sould get the alternator pulley. If your not then it's not necessary (from what I was told) I guess every car is different, but so far no problems for me.
