Anyone here with any experience with these? I was reading on the Forced Induction forum about em and basically anyone who has had at least one of either has said they have had no problems and felt a difference (except one guy who said he didnt really feel anything improve) but along with a post about em there was one person playing the devil's advocate by posting a link to another thread that discussed the cons of such a product, i'd like to hear what you all think about it. Is 10-15whp (dynoed, i guess?) for about 260 worth the amount of wear these objects will put on your engine? Also, with these two mods, AND a lightened flywheel how much do you think the life expectency of the engine will be reduced? And last but not least, are these mods good to go with as far as for a drag car, would the quick revs in the end ruin any chance for top end power?

Still have a CEL for misfires. Been reading on this site about (10 lbs ) lightened flywheels causing it and from the pattern I had with the CEL its more than likely its the flywheel. Gonna get the ECU reflashed by Subaru to see if that fixes it. Don't waste money on the lightened pulley.

Ok so Flywheel - OK since the dampner absorbs whatever it adds onto right? and Pulleys - Waste O' Money.
I have gfb's but no utec and have no probs and no misfires so its all thumbs up from me.
