So I just finished installing my 2.9 Smoothflow pulley, and I must say I love it. The car feels more alive then ever, all I have is the 2.9 pulley and Stage 2, I cant wait to get my ZZP header/DP, and a tune!!!! Just wanted to give some props to Nate, at smoothflow, the pulley looks and runs amazing. Also wanted to thank the couple of guys on here that helped me with the install!

My stage 2 bolts luckily came off easy with help from my little BENZOMATIC Butane torch!

 

sweet deal. hopefully you didnt bust any knuckles with that tensioner

 

I'm putting my 2.9 on this weekend could you notice much of a diff?

 

I would also like to know if you noticed a gain.

 

Sounds like he noticed a gain !! With a comment like the car feels more alive then ever !

 

grats on the 2.9 I love mine. Nates pulleys are awesome. You are lucky your stage 2 bolts came off easy mine had a ton of loc tite on them.

 

I just threw in the Smoothflow bolts in my stage box and took out the blue ones and nothing was said about it.

 

dudes the car feels great down low and up top...to answer 06s question about my knuckles, I actually took a wrench that barley fit over the hump on the tensioner and hammered that sucker on there. no damage was done to the tensioner and it gave me a nice sturdy handle and 06,thanks for helping me with directions that was sweet. I feel a lot of a difference but I think that the car is bleeding my extra boost. so I think it is spooling faster now but only gets 15.5 lbs still. going to get my car tuned on the 17th of may so hopefully it will feel even better!

 

BUMP... does anyone know if I am bleeding off the extra boost??

 

how warm is it outside? and gauge are you using to indicate boost pressure?

On my interceptor i used to see and little less boost than was indicated on my stock gauge, also, when it was warm out around 70 degree days i'd barely see 15 psi, but in cold weather i see around 16.5 psi with the 2.9" pulley.
