Does anyone run one here? Thinking about it, is it worth $200, or are gains so minimal, save the cash for gas? ---

crank pulley is more trouble than its worth. If it’s not SFI approved, or a stock balancer, you DONT want it on the end of your crank. Maybe it’s just me. ---

Well after getting replies here, and doing a little more research, the ~8hp it ‘frees’ up is not worth it to me. Just going to do the down pipe, an intake, and some purty wheels with better tires, and enjoy it :ninja ---
