Intense Racing Modular Pulley System ...

Just bought an Intense Racing Modular Pulley system with a 2,6" pulley (129$ for the kit).

http://www.intense-racing.com/

2,7" and smaller pulleys requires machining of the supercharger's snout a bit.

I bought also an adjustable tensionner (85$) from Motorsports Machine (formerly Pulley Techologies) on E-Bay. It is also available from ZZPerformance for roughly 100 $.

Installation date is undetermined yet ...

Right on, I haven't heard of this company yet, nor have I heard about the gains of a pulley this small. Let us know how it goes.

I believe in another post he said he got bigger injectors, but a reflash would seem necessary to me.

you just bought a MPS for a m90. immense..... i mean intense, doesnt sell anything for the m62.

Even if they did, Im warning you all now, stay away. VERY shady company that has known to screw people over. Made LSDs that released bronze dust into transmissions causing complete tranny failure, and they wouldnt warentee it and "race engines" that fail after 10k miles of normal use. Stay away.

You do know that's a 8 rib unit just like the zzp mps but it should still work fine.

People beaware of this member, he got banned from his favorite site ClubZZP for his fine attitude!

The M62 and M90 are the same shaft

I thought the S/C was only good for 26,000 RPM When i did a quick calculation a 2.85" pulley just about maxed it out. Can the S/C spin faster without destroying itself???? What have you read so far JMC???

a 2.6 pulley should push it over the S/C's limits right? i know someone with a lightning that has a pulley too small and the damn S/C sounds like its about to blow to pieces!

The Eaton M62 blower can handle a continuous speed of 14 000 RPM. Unless you're always at WOT when you drive your car, I don't think there is any problem to let it spin at 15 000 RPM a couple of times a day.

What kind of machining is required to run a pulley that small?

Oops i meant 16,000 RPM let me do some math real quick....

It would be likely that you would raise the redline to 7,000 cause the engine is still making more power and it would help with first gear.

a 2.85" pulley at 7K is 15,657 RPM roughly <-- stays below 14K until 6,250 engine RPM Spins 2.24 for every engine RPM
a 2.6" pulley at 7K is 17,163 RPM roughly <--- Stays below 14K until 5,750 engine RPM Spins 2.45 for every engine RPM

This is considering we have a 6.375" crank pulley which i read someone had measured

For me a 2.85 is pushing enough until i do the build book. I think with a 2.6 the life of the unit will begin to lower more rapidly but will probably have a decent life.

At that high of revs it also begins to steal alot more power and create more heat on eatons site it shows some graphs.

With the 2.6 at 7K engine RPM it looks like it will make 550 CFM, steal 50+ HP, increase temp to 220* F

I just think if your going to go through all that trouble that it would be better to do a blower swap with one that is not so close to being maxed out. Better run some water injection with that pulley, you'll loose alot of pressure to heat

Interesting with all the stuff you have gone through and you haven't made any gains in HP that are significant, seems like a waste of time and money to me. Why not wait until the staged upgrades come out and make a purchase and not have to worry about the ECU being your crutch? JMHO but I would have said the hell with it.

how you doing Rob? And i got banned from cgp because of the aag ****, not because i didnt like a vendor. If anything, youre so far up intense's ass that you cant see daylight anymore. Dont say im up zzp's ass either because ive never bought anything from them but a t-shirt. Only reason i dont like intense is because of all the stupid **** theyve pulled and SC personally admitted to me for some stuff.

Good luck dealing with In-tents racing. And have fun dealing with Cook. In-tents has a HUGE rep amongst the W-body community for being shady, not supporting or warrantying their products and generally being sheisty with their practices.

That and why buy mods for a supercharger that is already close to maxed out? You're beter off investing in a good header and alot of tuning.

What is a shame is how all the OUTCASTs are coming on here now


Guys and Gals, Get one thing straight, IF YOU PLAY YOU PAY!! When you MOD your car and race it, there is NO WARRANTY implied or expressed. Allot of immature GT and GTP owners just don't get it.


You don't like INTENSE, fine, don't buy from them. If you think any company out there is any different in the performance world, good luck, you have allot of learning to do

Here is the CATCH 22 you guys put ALL of us vendors in, you ask, sometimes yell for new and better parts. What would happen if i told you we need to test it for 1-2 years before we release part "X"???? You would go buy from someone else. This is a balancing act of trying to design it right the first time, keep cost down, test it as quickly and effciently as possible. GM tests new products YEARS before it is released and STILL has recalls and repair bulletins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HOW in earth do you expect a small shop/company to make it perfect everytime for a HARSH and every changing enviroment.

YOU CAN'T!!!!

If you have a failure, help them understand how it failed and offer suggestions, NOT sit behind your monitor and act all tough and bash the vendor because of failure of a PERFORMANCE part.

Funny how you say that, Rob, as you had a different attitude before Scott Crook bought your loyality. You know and all of ClubGP knows Crook/Shitense is a bad vendor, but no one close to him will admit it, except for the ones who got sick of his greed and left the company. They totally blacklisted the one site that got them started. How's that for community loyality?

All of you considering buying from Intense, I STRONGLY urge you to go to www.clubgp.com and do a search for Intense, and see the results of their "product testing". I can think of one famous pic and thread that's over there: the infamous drillpress LSD tester

whats funny is that when i talked to scott, he admitted to not testing any cams or the gen V ported blower before they put them on the market. I still havent heard anything from the ported gen V. Also, no testing on the Gen II LSDs either. Wow, im glad in-tents is testing products like they always do...

and look at my registration date here, ive been here way longer than almost any other GP owner. I told them to contact TOGs to get a header and look there is already a test model and the production is almost complete on the first batch. Also told them to go to DHP for their PCMs and supposedly there is already a test car with a modified PCM. Yeah.... im just trolling here...

I don't recall reading anyone calling you a troll. But you guys need to quit vendor-bashing. I'm another person who's over here from clubzzp I mean clubgp-and we don't want all the drama. Go post about INTENSE over on that website-and leave this one alone. This and ************* are great sites for enthusiasts to learn about these cars. Considering there isn't a whole lot of aftermarket for these cars yet, I would encourage ANY company to pitch in and help build an aftermarket. And as far as the "warranty"-that's a joke. Once you mod your car, there is no warranty. If you want to keep a warranty-don't mod your car. All I ask is that we keep the peace here. Leave the vendor/people bashing to clubgp. Thanks

So we shouldnt talk about a company when someone brings them up? ok, that makes sense. I sure wouldnt want just ANY part on my car for ANY vendor. I would want the best quality part on my car not something someone just decided to whip up and never test. You're right, you have to pay to play, but when a company tells everyone their parts are so great and then they turn out to be crap and dont do anything about it and keep claiming theyre so great, something need to be done.

And youre one to talk about vendor bashing. pot meet kettle.
