I can't say I feel much difference in the pulley though I'm sure it's there. The stock pulley is SO heavy. I think if I feel the difference anywhere it's in 1-2 gears during low rpm acceleration.

Don't take that as negative commentary. I took a few videos before the new pulley of 1-2 gear pulls as well as zero load rev-ups. I'll take some more now and sync them up. I'm sure we'll see a difference

After some autox training I figured something out: cones are "softer curbs".
