Question Motoblue 42% UnderDrive Pulleys.

I know there are a lot of negative information regarding rpmoutlet.com, I've read it all.

Is there anywhere else I can buy these pullies? The stuff that I've read about rpmoutlet.com scares the dickens out of me.

Why go 42%? I would really love to free up my crank more than 25% (ASP).

yo WP sorry I didn't get back to you on PM, I looked through a lot of sites and couldn't find the 42% besides from rpmoutlet.com
now you will get them from there if you order them, but it could take weeks...I've heard my share of horror stories...theres not a huge difference in the 25% and 42%, maybe a couple hp...but one thing I have heard from a few people in my search is that the 42% have been causing a lot of battery drainage and causing them to die...I would prolly just say go 25%, especially if you want a big system later down the road....its all up to you though.

How are the 42% pullies going for you psycho?

Are they draining life out of your car?

what exactly does the under drive pulley do for you?

it basically takes away power from your accessories such as A/C, stereo, etc., and adds onto your hp...the higher the percentage the more it takes away from your accessories, thus the greater power...25% is about standard

Exactly what he said.

It frees up your crankshaft more with the reduction of the crank pulley.

Hey psycho, you got yours from Ebay then? Did it come with the water pump too?

the particular one I got did ya..it all depends on the seller...if you are in a hurry then step through the gates of hell and order from rpmoutlet but then again you may not get it in a hurry...but then again some people have had good experiences....its like a hit or miss...

Motoblue is a brand from rpmoutlet. They are the only ones who offer it.

I have 42% UD and I have had no problems with keeping battery charge or keeping cool.

Yeah, see...

Thanks for pointing that out tex117. I'm going to adjust my pants and order from those guys over the phone. I'm in no hurry anyway, I just wanted to know if there was any other way besides going to rpmoutlet.com

Thanks gents.
