52983, Underdrive Pulley (Which one recommended)
Posted by freddy_00_69, Jul-30-03 04:32 AM
I want suggestions on which is preferred more by you guys. I know of the AFX UDP, but nopi sells the unorthodox pulley for more. I am not worried about price, but want better quality for my motor and performance. Any suggestions would be appreciated. thanks.

I am going to go with UR> I would buy them from you motofool b/c i know you have great business, but i have to get them from NOPI so i can get them next day shipped. I am picking up my car from a performance shop in Tampa friday and am going to install it saturday morning. Thanks for the help, i appreciate it.

FYI, I'm pretty sure theat teh Unorthodox one is rated at a smaller "underdrive" then the AFX one. But I'm using the Unorthodox... and it's great :thumbsup

Well, I am the first one with the AFX to apparently post here. I'm almost positive it's a 30% underdrive. If the UR is different, this may be a deciding factor.

I was very impressed with the quality of the AFX piece. It was cleanly machined and it seems to have a made a difference in the power I can put down. I just did too much else at the same time to be sure how much...

From what I was told by a ur rep, the older UR pulleys had a 20% underdrive but the newer ones as in a year or so ago are 30%, I have a UR and am extremely happy with the quality and overall performance with it. havent had one bit of problem at all in almost a year.

UR is better, as you have more options to change the ratio or accessories driven, its lighter, but it's less underdrive. Costs more too.

AF/X is more underdrive, but it's squeaky, and the aluminum bends pretty easy. I have the AF/X just cause its cheaper.
