I read a couple of discussions about pulleys for the car and it seems like the pulley is not a harmonic balancer for the engine, despite the way it looks. Replacing the pulley with a lightweight one with get you better throttle response apparently, and going with an underdrive pulley will net you minor HP gains from what I recall seeing.
