I just did this mod yesterday and it was 103* outside. You can definitely feel the extra HP. Went out with the wife and she said "your car seems faster" which was great being out in insane heat.

I was concerned about getting the 24mm bolt out that everyone talks about. If you use the proper tools (an extra long 24mm wrench) the bolt will come out easily. I reused the bolt but others say to buy a new one.

I couldn't find the Flat6 pulley on their site so I purchased the RSS kit that comes with the new pulley, serpt belt, and special wrench. The hardest/longest part was cutting the boss down IMO. I just took a hacksaw blade off the saw and sawed through with the blade in my hand. Rest of the install was a breeze.
