Greetings:

It's helpful to specify your model/year. I will install the Keli on my '87 Aero this week and will report on the process and performance.

keli makes the best pulleys.

OKO is a company that makes clones of all the other brands. the OKO pulley is a clone of the Keli.

i noticed the oko kit comes with a new ramp plate. and the keli doesnt come with ramp plate. is there a performance advantage with different rampplates? or is the oko ramp plate the same as the stock one? should i just get the keli and use my stock ramp plate?

Get the Keli and use your stock ramp, that's why ramp isn't included, because its same thing. I had to get a variator with the ramp for my se-50p. since the "p" is a restricted ramp and because of that I had no choice.

so the SEF aftermarket ramp has the same profile as stock?

Yep, or so darn close you won't ever know

The part belt rides on is what makes the difference (more area for belt to ride higher on).

I found a Keli with ramp since I needed un-restricted ramp. I later aquired a stock variator with un-restricted ramp. They appear identical. Daywot sells Keli variators without ramps, if you need a ramp for it he will sell you a stock ramp for $10.

SEF ramps gives you a lot more mid and top end power compared to a stock ramp it will flaten out on the mid

So basically then the Oko is a direct copy of the Kelli?

I would buy the Kelli but the Oko's can be had for much cheaper. The reason I am considering the Oko's is because I will be buying for 2 Elite's.

Is the quality that much different or the performance between the two of them or is the Kelli that much better?

I just do not want to waste my money paying for a name.

That guy on eBay sells them for $25.00 shipped with free roller packs.

I was going to buy 2 of em. I can get 2 for almost the same price as one Kelli.
