Default pulley wont come off

i got the mpx underdrive pulley bout a week ago, tried installing the damn thing myself but the stock pulley just dont want to come off, i rented a 3 jaw 2 ton puller from adv auto. ive spent about 50 bucks using my base hobby shop trying to get this damn pulley off, it just wont budge, now ive called shops to see how they would charge, so far ive seen from $250 to $107,
anyone installed this themselves?
thanks

TRY SOME GOOD *** PENETRATING OIL AND JUST CRANK ON THE ****. KEEP IN MIND, WHEN I INSTALLED MY UNDERDRIVE PULLEY I HAD TO CHANGE MY DRIVE BELT BECAUSE THE PULLEY WAS ALOT SMALLER THAN STOCK. IT WAS SUCH A PAIN TO TEST FIT 10 DIFFERENT BELTS BEFORE I FOUND THE RIGHT ONE! I DON'T KNOW IF THAT APPLIES TO THE MPx PULLEY.
