So before I added the light weight crank pulley I was idling high like at 2000RPM+ now that I've installed the pulley it dropped it back down to normal.

As far as performance goes, it seems to lighten up the throttle. When I step on it lightly it speeds up normally but quicker, I have the S/C boost set on medium so it doesn't kick in until I step on it a little harder at around 4000rpm. The only thing is it doesn't seem to pull as hard as before when I had the old stock pulley...

I dunno anyone else notice any differences or better performance let me know?

It's not an under drive pulley is it? That would lower the rotational speed of the supercharger.

MI didn't commission an under drive pulley.

I'm surprised a lightweight pulley can lower your iddle speed. I've never heared of that before.

You're right, the car it should accelerate the same way as a before, only it'll reach that high RPM quicker. That's the main performance benefit.

Which gear/rev range does it not pull as hard? Does it pull less? Keep in mind, this type of pulley will not create HP.

It's a crank pulley, Let me test it out some more and see what happens, it could be all in my mind... Also I have an automatic not stick, so that might be part of it too, but for sure my idle did drop to normal from this.
