On what engine.

I'd say a big N-O to the 8lb flywheel and crank pulley. If its your typical F22..probably 7-10hp more than what it puts at the crank. Maybe 3-5 extra at the wheels.

Whooo ..... you have a UR underdrive crank pulley AND AEM underdriven accessory pullies?!? I'd get the AEM's out of there if I were you. If you have enough power from the alt., I'd still put an OEM size water pump pulley on.

My guesstimate would be about 5 HP higher than BCK's for both measurements ....... but then again, he's right to ask what engine this is from. Different engines make different gains.

If its the F22B, asssuming, as its a 4 banger 5th gen, the water pump is timing belt driven.

A lighter flywheel and underdriven / lightened pulleys wont give you any more power to the crank. They basically help you "reclaim" power to wheels that the heavier parts had taken.

I'd wouldn't use AEM pulleys and an underdrive crank pulley. Both are designed to underdrive to a somewhat tolerable limit, so I would assume the pairing would severly underdrive accessories. Go with one or the other. Or try a lightened crank pulley, that isnt underdriven, andpair it with the AEMs. Almost seems the best of both worlds.
