from what ive seen and read on preludeonline.com ... like 80% of people who have them love the way the car responded.. ive driven w/out the ps belt on for shits and giggles.. and it does rev smoother. so.. i dunno. im gonna look at it and see. if it prooves to be too much bs. i might sell em. shrug.

It's a major mod on my car. Gains seem to be less on lower powered vehicles, but still seems worth it!

i have an unorthodox racing underdrive pulley on my car right now, and i have to say i didn't notice a fucking thing.

but granted, my car's throttle response was excellent anyway, and i replaced the pulley at the same time i replaced the head with a ported and polished unit and put the nismo cam in, so that may have offset the increase in throttle response, at least in the lower rev range (where it's most noticeable), gained by the pulley.

imho, i don't think it's worth it unless you're fully capable of doing it yourself, and have money to blow. it will give you a gain, but not really significant. don't expect your e.t.'s to drop very much from just the pulleys.
