pulleys?

I have a 1994 M6 Trans Am and I'm looking into buying pulleys. I've heard of the voltage drop but I think I'll live with it. Anyway I know there are alternator and underdrive pulleys, I've also heard of the crank pulley but isn't that the same as the underdrive? I am running an amp and subs but since my car is an M6 I don't think I need the alternator pulley. Can you guys inform me on the whole pulley idea? Also what pulleys and brands do you guys reccomend for me to get?

Re: pulleys?

agreed....SPECIALLY since you have a system.

for the 1hp and 5-7#s of torque...not worth killing your battery.

Re: pulleys?

I think a mail order PCM tune will be a little more in price, but net better gains, and will probably take alot less effort to install.

Re: pulleys?

If you get them, I would get the alternator pulley if you're running a system. I've never had a problem killing my battery with mine.
