I will get concrete data on NST pullies this Wednesday. Before and after dyno pulls. Might help your decision.

For those of you that might want to see what is involved in DIY, this link will be helpul.

I have been looking at this mod and decided to go with another brand with an overdrive alternator pulley to help keep the charging system up to speed at an idle.

I've been running the stillen UD pulley for months now, my voltage gauge never shows below 14 volts even at idle, its really a non-issue.

Have you had all accesories running too? A/C, stereo, headlights, etc.

Just curious.... was thinking about going with the UD, but was scarred off by the voltage stories.... about to oder the lightweight, but am willing to go UD, just trying to do all the research to make the best decision.

Thanks
