UD pulleys do not play well with a boosted engine. They're fine for NA but when you start making lots of power you need the harmonic damping from the stock pulley.

^I have RRM's UDP + a turbo, no complaints.

Regarding what's next, I'd recommend the Progress rear sway bar and RRM's sway bar perches. It's something you feel right away, is compatible with virtually all future upgrades, and isn't overly expensive.

Since I tune cars for a living I see a _lot_ of vehicles suffer oil pump failures from UDPs. 7-8 years ago I looked into it and did some research on the crank harmonics. You would be surprised how effective the OEM pulley is at damping the harmonics. You may be on borrowed time and you may be a lucky one. The physics are working against you.

I have an 04 boosted with UDP.
If your going to go cheap then grab a turbo timer.
But imo id say save up for the LSD or a really good clutch.
