Another thing with UD pulley is alternator output. On standard generators, it will simply result in lower Amperage returning to the battery. In the newer Overrunning Pulley generators, it actually cause the pulley to stay engaged for longer periods than it was designed for. It results in the pulley seizing and loss of belt. As the OP's car is a 98 2.5 the alternator will be a normal design, so not a huge deal.
