Don't have one, but when I do my clutch I'm getting one. It reduces the amount of weight the engine has to turn. Which along with underdriving the accessories is what the AFX pulley does. The less power the motor has to use to turn internal parts and anything else the more power that gets to the wheels. So lighter pulley, lighter flywheel, a knife edged crankshaft. All will free up horsepower that can get to the wheels. The engin eshould rev faster and throttle responce should improve. The only downside I've heard is because the throttle responce increases, you're low speed drivability (city traffic) will be affected, more "jerky".
