You should not get any problems with the RPI pulleys.

You will not gain any power, but the car will feel lighter and will rev faster.

Pulleys cannot increase the power of an engine. They just reduce the load on the engine required to run the auxilliary equipment. So, the car will feel lighter and will rev faster.

Does that mean that the engine is making more power => No.
Does that mean that the car drives better => Yes.
Does that mean its a good mod => Yes.

The dyno part depends on how the dyno actually calculates power.
