17% + 2% - HP / Problems

I have the 17% pulley instal with no problems so far, but I was thinking of getting a 2% Crank Pulley.

What problems can I expect? HP Increase?

I have not changed my plugs or coil yet, but planned to do it at the same time.

Thanks

I agree with the above. Also do not waste your money on a diffident coil. The stock one works fine.

I would not use anything but the stock one, it wont do you any good that i have ever seen.
The problem with running a solid or undamped crank pulley is that the oil pump gear is made from powdered metal and eventually fractures because of the lack of damping rendering the oil pump no useable.
Bytronic is right, make sure if your going to change it its got a damping effect to it.
