personally i would go with a lightenD pully. there really isnt a need for under driven ones.
perrin makes some great ones that a few of my buddies have and they like them a lot.

From what I've read online debating lightened vs. underdriven pulleys....
I hear that there are some re-charging issues with underdriven or smaller diameter pulleys. The economical alternative would be the lightened, but not underdriven, crankshaft pulley. The price ranges from $90-$150 and they can be a couple pounds lighter, but the same diameter which also lets you keep the stock belts, because the underdriven pulleys by nature will need a new set of belts.

I had one of these installed on my '02 WRX and I honestly wouldn't say it was worth the money or effort. I never purchased one for my '04 STi based on my experience with the '02. I just wouldn't recommend it unless maybe maybe if the part was freebee.
