Lightweight Pully Questions. Mythelogy or others.

hey guys so im looking at doing some things to my fit to help with pick up and go. the highest my revs go is about 4.5 to 5k but almost never happens. and i want more low end responce. so a cai intake may get added but its not gunna help my problems. obviously FI will help but i dont have that much money haha. soooooo i was thinking about installing a lightweight pully. obviously its significantly lighter than stock. so it will increse performance BUT!! to what degree? is it an actualy hp gain? or is it like a lightweight flywheel? where when you dyno you dont see any gains but when you drive the responce is improved. also what are the downsides i noticed someone saying that gas consumption is incresed but to what degree... if anyone has a pully or knows about them please lemme know i need ya help muh babes.

I have Summit pulley, and you will notice that the pick up is faster, and the rev climbs faster.

Are you saying that the pulley is restricting airflow somewhere?

Fit doesn't have Harmonic Damper, so no need to worry. I have it almost a year and nothing went wrong
