pro's are more fuel and more room to grow.

Cons are you need a need tune and injector harness.

In the end there really is no down side

Considering your future mods I would grab them. You are already pushing the limits with your modifications and upgrading them will be safer for your system. A lot of people dont realize that a 2.9 on a gm stage 2 tune in high altitudes can put your idc's well into the 90s - 110s. However it depends on all sorts of factors etc.

Either way, upgrade the injectors, get a tune and you will be much happier.

i do see the point here, and i am a tuner so i know what can go on. I live in a elevtion above 4k, and ive tuned a cobalt with a 2.8 pulley and the idcs never got higher then 88% reason why was P.E EQ and ect. u can tune for the pulley but id much rather tuned the 2.8 for 60s more room, and safer

I dont think you'll see gains really, just that it will be a necessity here shortly if you decide to pulley down and just be safer in general, that way you arent maxing out your injectors.

up here people can run 2.8's with idc right around 85 to 90 on a tune...from what i have heard unless you go lower like a 2.7 the 60's are a little harder to tune up here.... that is coming from matt up here

I am running a 2.99" pulley with GM Stage 3 tune and I dont see the need for cooling mod unless you are doing constant back to back pulls
