Message I thought it was somehting like 13.5lbs(stock), 7(fischer), and 3 for the light underdrive pulleys (I'm dang close on the ASP pulley @ 2.925lbs). I didn't know the UR was that much lighter than the other ones.

The less weight the better for power - sure, but as you get really low I'm sure you get into diminishing returns.

For fun I'll do so WAG numbers (since the superbowl is boring anyway).

Lets say 13.1lbs -> ~7lbs (Fishcher) = 7hp gain

13.1 -> ~3lbs = 9hp

13.1 -> ~2lbs (1.925lbs) = 9.5hp

I will trade 2.5HP (again, this is only my wild guess) for some kind of dampener on there. Those numbers might not be exactly right but I would hope my point about diminishing returns and saftey is made.

These are my opinions only, I am aware the lack of a dampener has never been "proven" to cause problems on our cars.
