2.8 question

ok well i just bought a 2.8 pulley bc i got a good deal on it and now im undecided on what to do next... i know everone is going to tell me to get hp tuners but i dont really want to spend that much and it would get me into trouble... anyways i was wondering if it would be ok to go w/ the intense s4 pcm and 60 lb injectors or just stick with s3 w/ 42's with colder plugs of course?

I would just stick with the 2.8 and 42.5 with colder plugs. It seems to work well for everyone else.

Just get a custom tune, with 42.5lb injectors, colder plugs, or you could get the s3pcm, but you would get more out of a custom hp tuner tune, becuase you can always change it, and adjust settings when ever you want.

No matter what you do, that pulley will require bigger injectors...hence a PCM adjustment.

If you go stage 4 then it is an even smaller pulley than the 2.8 you have.
Stage 3 is a bigger pulley.

Find someone in your area that has an HPTuner and who knows how to use it, and give the guy(s) a few bucks to tune it with 60# or 42.5# (your choice)
Cheapest way I can see.
