Wanted to see if anyone had advice to see If I should/could go smaller than a 2.8 pulley? I figured only since the meth is a good coolant. Let me kno wht you guys think

 

If your using the zzp pulley system you can go down to a 2.7 without snout machining and for longevity I wouldnt go any lower than that.

and on a 2.4 I would recommend any lower than a 2.8 anyways I see it as pushing it myself.

 

your already on a 2.8. you can drop sizing but beware of the consequences

 

People have gone lower then a 2.8 w/o meth so I think it's safe to say yes

 

I ran a 2.7 and meth at 22*timing. I could of ran more but meh.

 

this would be interesting

 

Yea I figured it'd be ok but I'm not sure. I wanted to see wht others were running if they went lower than 2.8. Do y'all think I'd get real bad coNsequences by goin 2.7???

 

what other cooling mods do you have? Also you auto or 5spd?

 

I just got the stock and aftermarket h/e. No dual pass!
But Ima auto transmission : (

 

so if I were to put a smootheflow 2.7" on I would have to machine the snout? that sucks *****... I got a zzp 2.7" Ill sell you for $30 shipped

 

im interested in that. very interested.

 

2.7 is the smallest you can go without machining the snout.

 

Do you have a trans fluid cooler? I actually need to get one also. Probably gonna get one next pay check..... This weekend I'll be installing my opt. b

 

If you want it pm me I can send you pics and such, the bolt pattern does not fit my smootheflow hub.



Is anyone certain a 2.7 will fit without modification??

 

^this. if you want more after a 2.8 i wouldn't bother going for a smaller pulley, i'd go with a tvs or turbo setup. expensive, but you're getting the best out of your M62 with a 2.8 imo. people will argue with me, but that's just where i told myself i'd stop.

 

I told him about when I did the swap on his car!
btw his motor is a 2.4L with auto tranny!

 

down sizing the pully not such a great idea.

 

on the 2.0LSJ its not such a big deal. the blocks are meant for boost. the 2.4, not so much

 

Yea I feel u guys! Personally I was just woundering but soon she'll be built so after tht well see wht happens. It just sucks cuz to build the tranny is a pain in the dick!

but naw bro I haven't done tht as of yet. I'm lookin to asap but Im currently save for a good dyno tune I got in a few weeks. Have u dynoed urs!?

 

on a stop pulley I have, I made 226whp, and 198wtq. I now have lsj throttle body, 2.8in pulley, and ummmmmm......... thats it.

 

invest in the zzp fuel pressure regulator if your already at a 2.8

i didnt see any gains going to a 2.8 or 2.7 when i was supercharged, but never had the regulator until now

 

I had looked into that alil while back but couldn't find it. Ima check it out tonight.

Yea thats how my setup is. Now I got meth tho. I wanna see where I'm at after my dyno tune in a few weeks. I'm lookin to be a 300 whp atleast. Then I'm done with the car

 

cool good luck, I have my meth kit here in my room..... although I'm not sure at what size the nozzle is. I also have a complete valvetrain with +1mm oversized valves sitting in a box as well. Just waiting for my financial status to be good. I got a new job two weeks ago so I'm getting paid more so maybe just maybe I'll have all this done sooner than I thought.

hmmmmmm..... just scrolled through zzp website and I couldn't find the fuel pressure regulator

 

i saw they removed it too. there's no love. hope it comes back.

 

I'm pretty sure if you email them they can get ya one.
