So I need a new crank pulley. Damaged mine when removing it. So as always i wanna upgrade. I would buy the AF/X pulley but only Howell sells it and I dont trust them. So i'm left with 3. Unorthadox ( http://www.cimotorsports.net/motor-sport-products/unotrhodox-crank-pulley-eclipse-talon-420a.html ) customcargrills ( http://www.customcargrills.com/proddetail.asp?prod=%2301%2DM420Apul ) And ebay ( http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Parts-Accessories_Car-Truck-Parts-Accessories__95-96-97-98-99-Eclipse-Non-Turbo-Underdrive-Pulley-NT_W0QQitemZ110299489853QQddnZPartsQ20Q26Q20AccessoriesQQadnZCarQ20Q26Q20TruckQ20PartsQ20Q26Q20AccessoriesQQddiZ2811QQadiZ2865QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item110299489853&_trkparms=72%3A543%7C39%3A1%7C65%3A12%7C240%3A1318&_trksid=p4506.c0.m245 ). Witch one would you buy??

Go with the Unorthodox.

I am extremely happy with it.

Probably one of the best mods that I have done.

I have the custom car grills udp and i have been pleased with it. Mine looks different than the image they show on there website. but i assume that the just use a general image of one of their udp's for it.

i find another heres one from megen racing ( http://aplusperformance.com/Store/Product/ItmItem.aspx?ItemId=175944&Make=EAGLE )

I got my AF/X one from Howell and they included the belts. Only bad thing is that it took awhile since they didnt have any and they had to make new ones. I dont regret getting it and all the accesories work fine. I'd recommend it.

I believe they can also get their hands on the AF/X pulley but they don't have it listed on their site.

Great company and quick service. Just give them a call and see if they can get it for you.

I also have the customcargrills pulley. I have been happy with it so far. Install and removal is a breeze. I believe the underdrive is 20% which I believe is lower than the 30% for the Unorthodox??? Also, when I ordered my pulley, they were out of belts, so they may still be. I ended up buying Gates belts and the pulley would squeal. I have since replaced them with Gatorbacks, and they are whisper quiet.

i have the Unorthodox one and love it.

easy install, easy removal, never shredded a belt and never jumped a groove

I have the Unorthodox with A/C and P/S delete.
The only thing i hate is headlights dimming, When at a stop..

I too have the unorthodox pulley and love it, the only problem I had was it wasn’t a 5 cage on the outside (ps,ac) but it was 5 cage on the inside (alternator). Kept shredding belts till I Ran up to napa got me a 4 cage belt; haven’t had a problem since. I think I got a factory fuck up. Was going to get a AFX but couldn’t find one, o well there very much the same.

I run two amps with PS, AC, and my UR UDP.

I have NEVER had the lights dim at a stop. And I idle at 850.

I have the AF/X from Howell but it took them like 3 months to get it to me and that was hounding them like weekly then daily after a while. Do I recommend the product? Absolutely. Would I buy anything from Howell ever again? No Fuggin way!!! Their customer service is suck. To me customer service is more important than anything else when it comes to performance parts distributers. I don't care if they do make the best one out there. I would go with the unorthodox one. I have installed a set on a 4g63 for a buddy of mine and the fit and finish was second to none.

well i ended up buying the customcargrills one. I couldn't bring myself to spend over 200 for a pulley but i didn't want one that costed 20 bucks and was crap either. So i went with the middle one.

make sure to update on how it turns out

I got the ebay one. Easy install, only problem I had is it shredded a rib off the alternator belt but I just left it and I havnt had a problem. No sqeualing or anything either.

well the pulley came in yesterday. Fast shipping took only 3-4 days? i'll post pics up then
