Those with Steeda pullies.....
 
I have been hesitant on the addition of Steeda pullies installed.
I have heard good AND bad things.....the bad thing moslty is charging isses.
I also heard that its easier for a car with pullies to overheat due to the lack of turn on the water pump.

Are pullies really worth the $$$...and worth the possible problems that they COULD cause. And worth the few extra horsepower?
Many say that they have had no problems at all though. So Im torn.

After you had the steeda pullies installed....did you notice the extra performance? how much more did your 1/4 mile time drop?
ARE THEY WORTH IT??????????????????

To be honest after i got mines installed i didn't notice any difference whatsoever. Since then i've had 0 problems with them. I've had them almost 3 yrs and i can't complain. I beginning to doubt wether they actually give back hp as they claim, but every little bit helps. ;)

I noticed pick up on the low end when I had them on my GT. I also didn't have any charging issues.

I didn't notice a difference.. but I also didn't notice a difference with any of the other mods besides the exhaust, tune, and gears lol. Everything has been fine since the install though.

besides, if you end up gettin any kind of sc, you'll need to switch back to stock or other kind of pulleys. so if s/c is ANYWHERE in your future, its best to not worry about the possible 10 extra hp of the pulleys.

10 hp if that...I rather have a 100 or 125hp at command whenever with nitrous than anything...lol
