Pulleys on an everyday driver?
I am thinking about putting a full set of pulleys on my car (01 coupe EX) but it's an everyday driver and I've heard that sometimes it'll wear on the engine...(although what kind of "wear" I don't know) But I get mixed answers so I don't know what to do. So what excatly is a pulley system going to give me? and what will it hurt my car? what should I get? I've heard the Unorthodox is good but hell, I don't know.
Need some advice...HELP!!!

Rep Power: 0 Set of pulleys? Are you talking about like AEM pulleys. I wouldn't recommend anything like that. If it's going to be a daily driver, and your worried about comfort, don't even worry about pulley(s).

The accessory pullies give almost no gain and are just a waste. They also underdrive your accessories (less power, etc.). I got a DH-crank pulley for mine, and I don't think it will cause engine damage. The UR crank pulley has been known to cause engine problems by messing up a sensor it goes onto.
