I did read somethere that one guy did have a 2% on his auto and took it off. I think it may have been in the 2% crank survey thread where there's a table of people with different combos of pulleys and whether they had issues or not.

I think that this person said he/she said the engine wasn't reading the revs right since the harmonics of the engine are changed. This makes sense for an auto, for sure.

I myself have PMed several people about theirs and for the most part there are not many problems (for manuals) but several didn't think it was really worth it to spend $150+$100 for install, give or take...for only a small change.

I doubt he is the ONLY one...

I emailed both ALTA and M7 about the 2% and both were very helpful.
