I've put mine on, taken it off, put it on and taken it off again. I can tell you honestly that, on the positive side, you feel a slight difference in pull. Wheels slip just a little easier. Big difference? Not at all. Don't expect much from 8 HP over your 414. It feels a little more rev-happy. Climbing the RPMs just a hair quicker. On the negative side, the steering gets stiff at low RPMs like when turning up a driveway or in to your garage. Not too bad though. It feels like you pushed the M button. To finish, here's one nobody has ever mentioned - to my knowledge - but the car is much smoother when cold. The bucking effect with a cold engine gets much less, or better. Not gone entirely, but much better. After that, I'd suggest getting one. It's reversable so at worst you lose your $380 bucks.

What I am saying is to get the full effect you really need to do other mods as well as I have found out , yes the pulleys are good on there own but add other components and they all work to create a much better upgrade package

thats my opinion any ways
