Default Underdrive pully- any effect on steering effort?

I'm thinking about this mod and was just wondering if the steering effort is increased due to the slower rotation speed.

Nope, only thing I have noticed with an ASP (25% ud) is with the a/c, lights and wipers on the voltage will get pretty low at idle - once you start moving its fine..

I have no issues, no extra steering effort, no voltage problems, AC works great.

Good mod with no downside on my car.

:iagree: No problems or issues.

Just make sure you get it on tight and be generous with the red loctite.
