Ultra-mega-quick question before I buy a March pulleys set!

Hello,

I wan't to buy a set of March's pulleys on Thunder Racing web site now but I can't decide between 2 sets. The 2 sets I'm looking at are in the Power & Amp series since I do a lot of stop-and-go in the city. But their's a 2 pieces and 3 pieces set. Will the additional water pump pulley in the 3 pieces set give me a little more performance or it's not worth it and should buy the regular 2 pieces?

there worthless and going to make your car feel retarded with the 2.77 gearing in the back and the 700r4
<1000rpm it doesnt turn the power steering pump enough to get full power out of it, which you might think youd never notice but a 700r4 will have you cruising around <1000 all the time, and while making a turn and hittin the gas the whole steering just feels goofy as hell.. just my opinion, i do have quick ratio and a small steering wheel though, heh
