www.fastfwdperformance.com (http://www.fastfwdperformance.com) makes a nice 19% underdrive crank pulley that I've had success with.

You get about 8- 10 hp freed up and it uses a different belt.

is it just the pulley or a damper/pulley in one? do u happen to have the part number on the belt and where would u suggest for the pulley?

It is just a pulley there is no damping to it, well its been said that the motor is internally balanced and I cant say I ever had a problem with mine and on the belt if you do a search here you should find it.

Just so you know I dont think to many people have tried the rsm and so it might be taking a chance on buyin that one.

Street Arsnal.com had a set too but I don't think they are in business anymore.
You have to call. They don't sell the crank anymore but the alt and WP they'll still sell you . I think they were $100

I can't exactly remember who it was, but I remember someone saying that the RSM pulley was a bad idea. ( It was lightened a little too much maybe? ) Make sure you do some research before you buy bro. Hate to see you buy a whole world of headaches, y'know? B)

ya, i heard the rsm one caused a kind of rough idle. you could get a reprogramed pcm without her knowing, but it wouldn't do much without at least a intake/exhaust
let me know how this mod works for ya, im bone stock and i want to start modding..but the cash flow isn't there right now...i should dump my gf...LOL, JK!!!

I heard redoing a crank isn't good as well. That's why I left mine alone
