    Question underdrive pulleys

    i was wondering if these pulleys(http://www.indigospeed.com/GTPullies.html) will work in my 88 lx. i have aftermarket pulleys in my car but they only gave me about 7hp.

    Yeah, according to thier website, it will work. Unless you've made some major mods that let your engine rev more freely, don't expect much difference, in my opinion. If your car is, or will be, heavily modded, then go for it!

    my car already has a fair amount of mods, the pulleys i have now where really cheap and they only gave me about 7 hp, im thinking theses my be a bit better and seeing how my car is a carbed and they dont make shit for it this seems like a fast, easy, and pretty cheap way to get more power.

    yeah we ran a weak dyno on it and i said it gave me around 7, i got the pulleys from a friend who works at a shop here in town for 40.00 he said they would give me about 5 to 10. i thinking these pulley are a bit better than what i have now.ok about my mods here goes........mugen radiator and oil cap, gutted cat, custom fitted 92 civic dc sports intake, 2.5 pipes from catback to a nakayama muffler with a 5 inch tip, R1 combat wing, ngk plugs, 8.5mm plug wires, new pulleys, 16 inch rims, and 2 inch drop.

    I don't see how you cannot find any for our car, I've found alot of them, and thats another one added onto my list, but I think that seems to be the best, they are supposed to take the strain from the ac/heater, and other components in your engine compartment off of your engine, so the engine doesn't need to give out more power then needed. Which saves you power for other things, like...........RACING!!!

    let us know how it turns out if you order them. also, about the headers, get dc sports and have one hole welded shut or put and old oxygen sensor in the extra hole and they'll work just fine!
