Default Perrin Light Weight Water Pump Pulley

Been trying to find any opinions/threads/reviews on the (Brand Name Here) light weight water pump pulley and haven't been successful in finding any opinions one way or another.

I am planning on getting a light weight crank pulley but am trying to see if anyone has any experiences in the water pump pulley and if they noticed any considerable difference in driveability after install? I am specifically looking at Perrin but frankly I think they would all be about the same

I had the Perrin Lightweight Water Pump pulley. I don't think it really did anything. I also had the Grimmspeed Crank pulley.

Together, I doubt they really helped much with the overall equation. I had a TMIC, EGR delete, TGV delete, and tune done at the same time as the pulleys, which, compared to the pulleys, was the much bigger change to engine efficiency/power.

I never had any noticable drivability issues though.

Why waste money on something that wont add power or make that much if any of a noticable difference in driving. Unless you have done everything possible to the car I'd spend that dough on something else.
