Hi! My names Ryan and I'm obviously new here! I have a 1996 V6 with 77k miles on it. It has a CAI, BBK off-road H pipe, American Thunder GT catback dual exhaust, HID head lights, sequential tail light turn signals and brake lights, I have new underdrive pulleys and a new alternator that im about to put in!

Welcome. Clean car

Clean looking ride. Be sure to keep your stock pullies in case you run into problems of the underdrives slowing down your accessories to much.

Thanks to everyone for the compliments!

What do you mean by slowing down the accessories?

The underdrive pulleys free up horsepower buy slowing down the accessories, making them draw less horsepower. Slow down items such as alternators and waterpumps to much, and you could develope cooling issues and charging issues. Just keep your stock pullies just in case of the event the underdrive pullies do cause issues

Nice ride! What kind of underdrives you putting on? I've heard more than one person talk about problems from installing them. Mine came from March & have never caused a problem. May have just got lucky though...

BBK underdrive pulleys off of AM. No one in the comments on the website has said anything about any problems yet!
