That's depending on how you are thinking about it. If you are talking about flywheel hp, than yeah, u won't show any gains due to the way flywheel hp is calculated in the first place (in this case u are just getting back what you are losing). If you are talking about the actual hp yer car has (eg the rwhp) then the dyno will be happy to show you the difference.
Anyways, it doesn't matter whatever you have in mind. taking off the mechanical fan makes a difference. Can't argue that.</td></tr></table><span id='postcolor'>
i was just comparing this as to an exhaust or intake, where you get more hp at flywheel(crank) as well. same idea as with a pulley, lightened flywheel, etc... bottom line, it helps.
