Just get Megan Racing pullys they come in andonized blue, silver and maroon. Costs 100$ vs 220 for Greddy, you should expect really no more then 3 or 4 hp its more so for show and helps in low end power.

Where can you get the Megan pulley for the S13 SR? I have only seen them for the S14 SR. I have been wanting to get pulleys for my swap, but I was having a hard time with the idea of $200+ for the Greddy's, althought they look really nice. $100 would make the purchase a lot easier if the Megan's are holding up and performing well.

One of my guys can get them to me for 90$ canadian so thats like 65-70 american then shiping which would be like 5 $so 75 and i can get a whole bunch. Just need names of who wants them and money and its yours. Maybe if i can get a group by it could go even lower.

By the way the never made a 1989 SR20DET redtop, only the CA18DET which does have a red valve cover but its not a redtop FYI.

You sould go with the UR crank pulley,You will see much more gains then with the Greddy or Megan kit.And it will underdrive the water pump which really helps the sr20 engine at high RPM's.I think the Greddy and Megan kit is more for looks.

DOES THE MEGAN RACING KIT ACTUALLY UNDERDRIVE THE WATER PUMP OR IS IT JUST FOR LOOKS?

I'M INTERESTED IN GETTING THE MEGAN KIT ALONG WITH THE UR PULLEY BUT IF THEY ARE BOTH UNDERDRIVE IT MAY BE TOO MUCH.

Actually underdriving the pump as much as 40% is beneficial according to Mike Kojima.

What is the best method to accomplish the 40% underdrive then? I heard that using both the UR and the Greddy/Megan pulleys together is not a good idea. Is this true?

You sould just do the UR crank pulley,It helped my sr a whole lot,With Performance and underdriving the waterpump.If you just want to underdrive the waterpump Jun makes a waterpump and Yashio Factory and peak performance make just the waterpump pulley.But im telling you go with the UR pulley youll love it

On the street I wouldn't go so far. I plan to use the UR pulley always, and switch out the water pump pulleys when I go to the driving events.
