E-TEC II underdrive pulley group buy - 1st gen. Aveo (Pulleys are sent!)

Check out the DIY. I do suggest getting a new 730K6 belt.

Daox, Thank you very much! I just got my pulley on and going for a wash and test drive with a full tank. I have pictures I will post. My belt was a really tight fit but it went on there. So far no squeal and I have yet to really drive. Full report later!

I may ask where can I order the underdrive pulley and what is the price for it? Also my car has less than 35K miles now, so my question is what are the benefit in swapping in this one with the current OEM one?

All your answers are in the thread below.

So, of the people who have installed their pulleys, any impressions/reviews to post?

So far only xintersecty and daox have said anything:

xintersecty:

I did my change over the weekend while doing an oil change. I think it's a little quicker on the start. I noticed a audible change in engine sound. Has anybody else noticed a change? It sounds a little more meaty.

daox:

You can feel a difference. Its not huge but its definitely there. I'd say its comparable to installing a cold air intake on the car. I've personally used them on a couple of my cars.

I say that you can feel an improvement on acceleration. I have an auto an can feel the difference in power. After I installed it I took it to a dyno and i was rated 97hp and i think it was like 150 lbs of torque
