I got one on mine. got it used for $80 shipped, couldnt beat it, I like it. seems like a little better throttle response.

Im sure it helped but for the price, I can think of a couple better ways to have spent the money.

Well Im saying you will gain some also, but for the price, a cam seems like a better investment.

I think its a pretty consistent 5-10rwhp gain.

Ive put one on my silvy (asp) and one on the tbss (powerbond) and i wont be putting one on the tahoe for the simple fact that the time and hassle it is to put on and having to listen to the ac belt tensioner rattle when the ac is on just isnt worth it...

On the tbss i had the bolt back out 3 times and it was even torqued correctly..Had to use blue loctight and a 4th bolt to make a it stop coming out....

I saw no gains(or drop) on the dyno with a back to back run, without it and with it.

I feel as though my money could have been spent elsewhere.

One positive note is that the ASP pulley I used is way quieter than the factory one.

I dropped consitantly .08 so like i said about a tenth here. Eventually you will be looking for that .08 so since you already have it put it on and dont worry bout.
