aftermarket pulley people: small survey about your experiences
aftermarket pulley people: small survey about your experiences
All of us with the different pulley sizes, I'm just very curious how all our cars behave. So any of you with a Stage 2 or smaller pulley, please just answer a few questions about your experience with it, and maybe we can all benefit a little from this comparison. If you've had a few different pulley sizes, feel free to fill it out a couple times. If anyone has another question to add to the list, feel free to add it. If you are unsure of a question, then don't answer. If you have a really close guess, that is fine, I just don't want any BS numbers.
Thanks guys!
