The pulley swap will happen, I want to replace those **** mid-length headers with a set of longtubes too. Tubular front suspension is in the works, changing to 3.23 gears. All sorts of things to do!
The 3.23s will help a lot. Especially since you top out at 140. Id say no bigger then 3600 on the converter. Grab a good set of long tubes and do some suspension work. That car needs weight transfer. O yea finish your 10 point and get a new license too. The car seems pretty dialed in with the amount of boost your running. Id hold off on the pulley. I have the feeling once you get 30+ psi into it, your gonna start running into lots of issues and with that kinda power, if you detonate once...... well you get the idea. Just make it strong, consistant and most of all, safe.

I want to put the longtubes on and pull the x-pipe and the catback off at the track this year. Between weight savings and freeing things up a bit I should see a difference. That and I want it to sound nasty

lol you're right, I don't think I've ever seen him use the multi-quote function. Either he doesn't know how to use it, or he doesn't have the patience to read the rest of the thread before responding lol

Holy ****. There's been a shooting at Fort Hood, TX. 7 dead 12 wounded. 1 shooter in custody, at least one (maybe two) are still on the run.

I hope GTO Jimmy is OK.

Im having conversations with other people about other things. I would appreciate if you do not respond. Good day Sally.
I'm sorry, with you contradicting yourself so much in that sentence, it is hard for me to tell.
