2.8 Stg 2...Maxing out the injectors

Ok ive been reading alot about people running GM stg 2 with a 2.8. I know everyone is getting like 130% duty cycle but what does that mean. There are so many people on here that run it and i want to know what will happen.

People always say that what there car is doing but i havnt heard anything about it after that.
Im running stg 2 right now and i want to know if its going to be alright to run a 2.8. Cobalt Addiction says theres works fine. Plus i cant find any 2.85 or 2.9 that fit the GM Hub


HELP POR FAVOR

Dont get me wrong. I wasnt running dangerously lean. Alot of people are running the 2.8 on the stage 2 with no problems.

I would get a 2.9, colder pluggs and have fun!! I mean the diff getting a 2.8 on S2 injectors insnt worth the risk man. There is plenty of ppl selling 2.9 man... if u want a guys name , i bought one and they look sweet, all polished and 55$ or something

so running at 2.8 wont be as bad if you get it tuned..or does that not matter. I dont want to have to get 60lb injectors but i want a smaller pulley that makes a difference over STG 2.

Getting your car tuned? Doesnt that void the warranty cos your messing with the computer. Doesnt that completly go against the GM kits in the first place

So you make pullies. That is awesome. What could you compare your pulley too? I mean, is it similer to another companies? I will be in the market for a pulley very soon. I'm very picky about quility and won't put anything on my car thats not outstanding. Also, can you order any size you want? For example, something differant such as a 2.86 pulley?
