2nd Generation Underdrive Pulleys and related stuff

I am driving a 2g 3s-Fe 5 speed. I was thinking about putting an under-drive pulley on my car. Has anyone tried this and if you have, what were your results and do you have any recommendations on where to get it? Also, I am looking for a lightened under-drive and a lightened flywheel. Any suggestions? Since I am on the topic of belts and pulleys, my AC doesn't work and I really don't care to fix it. I want to pull the compressor. Does toyota make a belt that will support a compressor delete? Please let me know.
Jay
P.S. I saw a thread a while back on how to clean out your throttle body and it had pictures etc. I can't find it. Does anyone know which one I am talking about?

If you remove the AC compressor, just replace the belt with the one that's spec for non-AC set-ups. Any parts store can look it up for you.

Can't speak for underdrive, but for the flywheel just remove it and take it into a machine shop to be turned. You can specify how much you want them to shave off--a few pounds can be easily sacraficed without compromising strength if you have a stock set-up. I know the flywheel on my V6 is a monster, I never got around to shaving it down...

I put an Unorthodox Racing ud crank pulley on the 91. It was pretty easy to do (removed the passenger wheel and inner fender and the crank pulley is right there) I did notice an increase in top end power IMO its a good mod
