pulley size

hey i was just wondering what size of pulley i can actually use with 60 lb injectors, 2.5 custom exhaust and aem intake?? and then later on get a heat exchanger if needed...also i'll be getting a custom tune with hp tuners...i was thinking of 2.7 inch would be fine but i want to be safe then sorry...

if your gonna use 60lb injectors might as well go with a 2.5" inch pulley, no sense of going with a 2.7 with the same mods accompanying a 2.5" you might wana get a bigger exhaust though.

does the thought of overspinning the blower and turning it into a huge heater go out the window?

With a 2.5 you will be overspining like a biotch, you will nuke your blower in time, also the amount of heat that creates will negate the torque you will gain, because going from a 2.7 to 2.5 is just going to be mostly torque, imo go with a 2.7, its right in the middle, and still produces good power, but also still produces much un-wanted heat.

I'd say best bet would be a 2.7 also. It's still creating a lot of heat though. Heat exchanged and meth injection are you friend though just remember that!

Bro you could even do up a 2.8 with 60's and a nice tune. Less heat and power is still there and no overspin.

Yes that is actually a nice setup also, a 2.8 with 60s, add a h/e to that and your golden.

or you can jus do the dual pass end plate, run another h/e and port the blower like me than run a 2.5 you might wanna run meth to but iat2s are are not that bad without it

Yep. The H/E would help big time. Exactly. That setup right there is nice for our cars.
