No, like I said, I didn't want to double underdrive ANY accessory
reguardless of load.
Add in a 900 watt amp and I personally believe you'll need to start
keeping jumper cables handy.
IMHO the alt pulley isn't worth much, if any, real horsepower. I DID
feel a difference with the Crank only pulley. It feels like it builds
rpm's quicker now.
Good luck, with however/whatever you end up installing.
