how much did it cost to install? how long did it take? is the light dimming at idle annoying or barely noticeable? i'm thinking of getting one too but i have a GT.
ps-where did you get 4-6hp numbers from? did you dyno the car or refer to another dyno with the same mods?

i have this mod, but i cant really tell any difference in performance, but it could be there, its just that 4-6 hp isnt too noticeable. And about the dimming light at idle, i cant even tell. the only major diference i have had is better gas mileage, is this just coincidence, or are others with this pulley gettin the same. the mpg has increased by about 3-4, should pay for itself in a year, or sooner with gas prices the way they are now.

my lights dont dim at all from what iv noticed.. it is easy to install, do it yourself.. go to installs and get the install by mark bly i think... you need 2 people though and make damn sure you put the belts back on right

i'm thinking of getting it here at ecelica.com for $70. i was wondering since you didn't experience light dimming did you use a high powered battery or is it stock? also how long did it take to install?

You will get more of a gain from Unorthodox, it is a set of 2 or 3. Depending on GT or GTS. The AEM is only the Alt.
