T7Design Alternator "underdrive" pulley (Honda K20/K24 engines)
90% of the products in our store are in internal or external stock and we can often process your order quickly (varying from a few hours to a number of business days).
Naturally it is possible that a product has an (unexpected) longer delivery time.
Upon receipt of your order, we will always inform you about this and offer any available alternatives. So keep a close eye on your mailbox.
We deliberately provide stock information about our products afterwards, because many suppliers do not offer a ''stock link system'' and we do not want to show '' estimates '' in advance, like many other webshops do (which are often incorrect and give you wrong information in advance). We only want to give our customers actual information on the moment of processing the order so we don't mislead our customers.
If you need a product VERY quickly and you need to be sure that we have it in stock, please e-mail or call us or send a message via ''ask a question about this product'' below in the product description.
T7Design Alternator "underdrive" pulley.
The T7Design Alternator Underdrive Pulley increases performance by reducing the force needed to overcome the inertia of the alternator during acceleration and gear changes, this will result in a snappier throttle response and more horsepower reaching the wheels.
Alternators, in general, have a broad generating power band with the Honda K20 alternator producing a reasonable output from just 1,500 rpm, with max output being produced from 4,000 to 18,000 RPM, with this latter figure technically being the maximum warrantied rev limit. In some applications, where the engine is spending most of its time in the upper half of its rev range, you simply do not need to drive the alternator at such a high speed. However, the only issue you would potentially face is a lower output at idle, in which case you may need to increase the idle speed to ensure the alternator is producing more current than is being consumed by the vehicles electrical systems. An underdrive pulley should also be considered if you have raised your rev-limit of your engine, for example if it is now 10% higher we would recommend fitting a 10% underdrive alternator pulley and so on.
