You can probably go with a 2.6 pulley if you have 60#s and plus you have cooling mods to so 2.6 would be fine (make sure you have HE and dual pass)

I have a 2.6 pulley, zzp heat exchanger, no dual pas, notusnign meth no longer, my tunei gave my car, and 60 lb injectors and a ported blower. My iat at 80 degrees are at 90 degrees to 110 degrees when temps are 60 outside the highest my temp will get is about 80 degrees. I think a ported blower and a good tune will let you run a 2.6 without meth.

i think a 2.6 will be overspinning the blower....and you cant floor it in low rpms cus your putting to much pressure in the motor and its not moving it out fast enough...ur gonna hit full boost almost instantly and be at 2500 rpms..not good....atleast thats what iv been reading from some people on here...makes sense though...

Probably a 3.8". A 4" if you can find one... but you could easily find a 3.8" on the GTP forums.

maso. WOWOWOWOWOW. Yeah my boost is good to me, yeah i get boost instantly. ( SUPERCHARGER) HA HA HA HA TURBOS FOOLS...... But my 2.6 so far has treated me good, yeah if you dont know how to tune, or can get a tune, dont have some type of free flowing exaust, intake, belt, injectors,... HINT A CLUTCH. Because you will need one lol. But if yopu wann be same, get a 2.9 pulley. my Thoughts. lol ecspecially with it being almost wint, hee he he he he ha ha ha i love the cold i mean my car does.
