here is a friendly helper to keep your car living during the winter time.

if you have a smaller than stage 2 pulley on your car and are not the tuner of your car. go up in sizes. your afr will swing good to richer than normal. most people don't take the time to tweak their maf cals with an error window in it. so go up in sizes.

straight stage 2 car?
leave it.

stock?
leave it.

tvs cars?
work that maf call until you get actual/cmnd. even with meth you will have to command richer than normal.

change your plugs. lower the gap a smidge. don't beat on the car a lot.

Very good advise but I'm going to leave mine as I only stomp on it when needed.... well... maybe alittle more than needed

Hell yea. If this bottom end decides to blow like my stocker did, I'll feel accomplished. Then rebuild again. Just have it forged the 3rd time around.

Bad rings led to poor track times. Northern climate leads to closed track.

Spring leads to wtfpwning a Bryan.

What a coincidence, mine say the same thing to both cars... But that was 2 years ago, surely it doesn't count anymore.
