smallest pulley w/o cooling mods?
well with out cooling mods and having higher boost ya you will soak more heat the more boost the more heat
I'm looking into buying a stage kit, but I am reading so much about not getting a crazy small pulley ( <2.8). I have not seen a stage kit yet that comes with any cooling mods. Does this mean that you really don't need cooling, or that the kits simply DO NOT come with the cooling mods? What's the safest, smallest pulley to run without having to do anything "crazy" with my engine?
Thanks,
Nick

Seen that happen. Brian (yellowcobaltss05) used to get pulled sometimes by stage 2 cars when he had a 2.5/60's with no cooling mods. Even with his cobra H/E it wasn't really enough direct cooling and would heat soak pretty bad when driven hard.

Well, I ran a 2.8 with no cooling, but I didn't do that for long. I would suggest getting some sort of additional cooling, order from weakest to strongest being H/E<Dual-Pass<Meth/Water Injection. It all depends on your budget, access to tuning and final plans with the car. H/E is by far the easiest to install but does the least without the dual-pass. The dual-pass is the biggest PITA to install but is always there, always better than stock and is technically a bolt-on. Meth requires tuning to be optimum, has a finite amount of fluid, is a moderate install but will provide the best, most powerful cooling you can get.

actually a bigger heat exchanger would do more than the dual pass system. thats probably the most worthless thing i've seen next to male nipples.
Not lets say you do a dual pass plate and you run it hard and feel your stock intercooler, that weird its warm, huh, must be taking out more heat from the system.
Now is when you add the second heat exchanger and boom both cool to the touch and taking heat out of the system, hurray for conductivity!!
that was my stage3 car what there not telling you is my inter cooler pump was not working through the 1 @ 2 pulls that was all he loged. when it was working mdub made no moor power than me and i had the stock pcm with the stage2 flash
So 2 h/e are better then one bigger one i just dont understand it because if you have a h/e in front of another one then wont the rear one not cool as much so a bigger one would be cooled totaly and you wont have one on top or another just my opinion please explain to me why 2 are better i aint being a dick just want some facts
Yea, just like the CA H/E. You have two options. Keep stock H/E and add bigger CA H/E. Or remove stock and just add bigger CA H/E. I will keep the stock and add the bigger H/E and then also do dual pass. Not really sure what would be better and why.
