AP crank pulley installed, Review
AP crank pulley installed, Review
hello,
i recently bought used ap pulley.
i read few threads saying that ap pulley is not worth to buy
however since the price was very low[from our club member] i figured out i give it a try.
Installation
hassle, it was just hassle for me.
no space to work, small bolts, hard to see.
took me about 2hours.
had problem when my oem pulley didnt come off, but little bit of lubes made it come off [but the small pulley took way longer]
No CEL after. did the reset
Did i like it??
well if i paid 200 bucks for it, i wouldn't be happy with the result. i paid 50shipped, it was worth 50 bucks, but it was hassle to put it on.
As everybody knows, throttle response got pretty fast [felt it was more comfortable for me to match the rpm when i downshift/hill and toe]
I read few threads saying, there is no noticeble power gain from the pulley, however I felt there is power gain. not a lot but i felt more smooth driving 1~3gears plus more power/torque.
Hope this will help people who are planning to buy the pulley.
I totally forgot about trying out my AC but i will def try it out when i go out tonight.
also i have a question, i noticed my idle is low when start the car or when the car is not moving[in neutral]
usually rmp stays around 1.5~2.5 but now its 0.5~2.0. is there sth wrong??
