I really do need to go SC now...I think I'll probably just go with a 3.1 pulley and 60's. Make sure to let me know what kind of power you're putting down. I'm curious to know what it will handle since I'm in the same boat as you. I should have you take me for a ride in it maybe. And what did Ryan use for tuning? HPT?
Right now I have to work on fixing some other problems with my car. I know a wheel bearing is bad, I have major issues with my suspension at the moment and everything is less than a year old. I also have a bad mab header and ZZP DP to install along with a larger front sway. I haven't done anything to my car in a year and it's time I start working on it again.

hopefully dyno sometime soon. I can say i keep up with my buddies 3.0 pulley E85 cobalt and ive taken down my other buddies 2.9 pulley redline.
Ryan uses HPT and is a great tuner. You ever come out to RKC meets? im there every week and could give a ride sometime

3.1 you could use 42s if you wanted. but 60s are better cause you can plug and play.

Also, what was a ballpark figure for your setup? I'm not looking to spend a lot of time piecing something together and I keep looking at the ZZP SC setup...I know it's overpriced, but that way I know I'll have everything I need and won't worry about anything else.
My only concern then is what do I need to do to tune my car on HPT right now since I have Trifecta? Since I'll be changing my exhaust this summer I think I'll talk to Ryan about getting it re-tuned. I have it tuned for MPG's right now and I'm getting an average of 29-30 with a mix of hwy and city and a mildly heavy foot during acceleration.
Would be nice to be able to have Ryan tune me rather than do Vince's tune through the computer, but it will cost more. I'm not really sure what I'm doing yet. I have to finish fixing my suspension...the FE5 struts and shocks didn't even last a year when I put my Pedders on and those are fucked along with my driver's side wheel bearing and some other stuff. I have to make sure I completely fix the suspension and other issues before I worry about modding again.

I don't come out to any meets. I have a lot going on right now, but I'll try to make it out to one sometime soon. What days are they and where at again?

Have Ryan tune you. He did mine.
I pieced together my own kit. Just keep an eye out for stuff...it does take time.
I will! Thanks!
