hey guys, im just wondering if it would be safe to run a 2.6 pulley from zzp and 60# injectors with meth and a proper tune. also how much hp do you think i would have on these mods: 2.6 pulley 60# injectors,vibrant header/dp,injen cai,meth,step 2 colder plugs,retune?

 

It should be safe since you'll be running meth, but your going to grind down the snout of the blower to get that pulley to fit. You don't have a H/E yet? and hp wise maybe 5 more than a 2.7? all depends how aggressive the tune is.

 

nah no h/e yet budge kinda tight since i have car payment and license payment due to still in high school cant work full time so i think im get 2.6 pulley 60# injetors for xmas and meth injection for birthday a month later with retune during summer doesnt matter that wont get installled right away due to im not driving my balt threw the snow....thanks but on zzp site it says that the zzp 2.6 pulley does not need snout grinded down....anyone wanna clairfy

 

bump

 

i dont believe that meth would be enough cooling for a 2.6. most people running 2.6's have like aftermarket h/e dual pass opt b and meth

well deff an extra h/e and prolly more, 2.6 is alot of heat

 

I believe you can run zzp's 2.6 on the stock snout. And yes with a proper tune you will be ok, as long as you don't beat on the car all the time

 

hmm maybe i should just got with 2.7 and meth than later on ottp h/e will i feel much gains over my 2.9?

 

You will generate more heat with a 2.6. Make sure you go with a dual pass endplate & a larger heat exchanger. There are other guys here who are running this setup, hopefully they'll chime in for you.

 

you will feel more of a difference going from 2.9 to 2.7 then stock pulley down to 2.9. Also a 2.6 will generate alot of heat, as said a larger intercooler, meth, and dual pass is a must if you do a 2.6. A 2.6 will be just out of the blowers efficiency ranger tho. id stick 2.7

 

Id stay 2.7 as well, I just bought one the other day but 2.6 CAN be done if you really want

 

Colby, go with the 2.7" pulley and meth, as well as an extra H/E. You will be more than happy with that set up. The tune is easy. I was running that setup before and beating 2.6" pulley cars easily. The extra heat from the 2.6 is not worth it IMO.

 

Sorry for thread jack what type of psi does a 2.85 and 2.8 make thanks.

 

I'm running a 2.6 pulley without meth but i've a 2nd heat exchanger and the dual pass endplate and the car is doing it fine

 

17 ish give or take depending on exhaust mods and cooling mods.

your car hates you. I'm betting your iat2 is over 150 after a w0t pull.


For a 2.6, you need a ginormous front mount h/e and water/meth spraying about a 5 to 7 gph nozzle. Even then you are still going to be on the warm end of things...

efficiency > m62.

 

you're wrong
1st thing I said I've a 2nd HE (It's front mount)
because I've checked my IAT at WOT and it never went over 120

 

maybe iat1's, no way during a 1-3 pull at WOT you're iat2's are 120.

 

Maybe you're right
but i measured it with my Actron CP9145 OBDII AutoScanner while driving the car
can you tell me maybe how to check it.. other wise..?

 

either via aeroforce gauge or hptuners

 

OK thanks
I'll check it out in the near future

 

hmm thanks mike ill definitly need you to retune me if i get these mods i cant decide if i should hold off and save for tvs and just get cf hood christmas or get the 2.7 pulley with meth injection and ottp h/e

 

NO. The ZZP 2.6 does NOT need ground on the snout to fit. I have one. Have never had grinding issues. They even say this on the site

My car has had a 2.6 for years. Even ran the TVS for a few months. No meth. No dual pass. only a Garret H/E inline with the stock one. I STILL pulled more power than most do with cooling mods on the stock tvs 80mm pulley.

Maybe my car is a freak. But my 2.6 does not over heat. Of course, I run distilled water, not dexcool in the h/e. Larger coolant reservoir for the intercooler helps too.

 

hey wicked, nice to see you're still around. ltns

 

With the mod list you have, and a real tune, you will be fine with a 2.6. I LOVE my trq curve.

Hello ltns??

 

long time no see :P

 

Heh, LTNS for sure. Where have you been?
