    Why?

    I see no reason to do so, you wouldn't gain anything.

    04+ cars have a voltage regulator built in, spinning it faster or slower will not make a difference. It only charges when the computer thinks it needs too. Voltage will at random drop to 13 volts or be as high as 15 at any given time.

    Maybe I missed something but what does voltage have to do with a water pump pulley?
