under drive or over drive pulleys ???
Hello peoples, I have been thinking about buying some OBX light weight pulleys for my kade what would be better under drive or over drive.. ? To be honest I don't know what the hell the difference is so any help would be much appreciated.

why would you do that?
that would make the water pump rotate much slower

lightweight pulleys wouldnt do shit for the motor really.
underdrive: make the pulley spin slower (larger diameter)
overdrive: make pulley spin faster (smaller diameter)
underdriving things such as your alternator and power steering will make them run worse since they are not rotating at the normal speed
If you just want the bay to look cooler, just paint the pulleys
