You can feel the tiniest, itsy bitsiest difference. I've got the AEM pulley kit. I gave a someone a pack of cigarettes and 10 bucks to do one of them. Me and a friend did the other. Wasn't too hard at all.

My friend got the 'ebay special'... but we had to go back and forth to autozone to find the right belt sizes. Good thing about the AEM kit, was that it came with the belts.

if you dont have the belts with the kit, its a bitch. You will be running back and forth to the auto stores trying to find the right one.

I believe it would really depend on which ones you get. The AEM kit comes with the Power Steering and the Alternator pulley, then the Unorthodox has that and they've the crank pulley. When my friend did his, he first bought belts a little bit smaller than the original ones, tried them. Took them back and exchanged them. Tried them... etc. We ended up going 3 times I think. You've just got to gradually narrow it down.
