I've had no problems with my AC or any of the other common problems associated with under-drive pullies.

Some folks running mega-watt stereos may have problems at idle.

As for brand, at this point all of the photos I've seen of the different brands available look exactly the same. (hummm?)

I'd go for the best price you can find from a reliable source.

Enjoy them.... they are well worth it!

ok, so if you have experienced no electrical problems. Is there a long term effect on the cooling of the engine? I know that the pullies slow down the water pump. I have had them on my other mustangs with no short term problems. I plan on keeping my stang this time.

i have steedas, if its like 110 out, its not super cold, even on max a/c, but it still cools enough. as soon as u start driving it gets real cold again. its worth it, i barely notice it.

I have notice the a/c feels like it cuts off when I floor it, and then goes back to normal after I let off the throttle. I have Steeda pullies.

ya pretty much any newer car will kill the compressor when you hammer it, my 99 yukon does the same thing. it has nothing to do with the underdrive pullz they do it stocked out too.
