Also at least half of your "shown" power gain is from underdriving the P/S pump. (ever thought of selling that pulley seperately) Not lightening the crank pulley and removing the harmonic damper and compromising engine reliability and longevity. (Others dyno too)
Your power gains on the dyno are without a piggybacked stock damper too. Dyno piggy backed and see what the change is. Dyno without the P/S pulley and see... Exactly...
Where exactly are you getting these assumptions from? Were you standing next to me when our Contour was on the dyno? No. The pulleys were tested
exactly as they are sold (both pulleys), no "games" or "tricks" are being played on the dyno. If you feel that uncomfortable with our product, I advise you do not purchase it. Do not make false statements without dyno data to back it up.
The harmonic dampener is not removed at all, it is still fully fuctional. "engine reliability and longetivity" is not compromised in any way. To this day, there have been no reports of crank damage as a result of our pulleys.
