Will it be safe to run the 3.4 with only a K&N for about 4 runs 1-2 times per year? (Keep in mind i'm not even going to drive to/from the track with the 3.4 on)

    So you want a slower car and harm your motor? Sound like you should stay far far away from pullies dude.

    A CAI and a 3.4" with no other mods will run slower and have a **** ton of KR. I've already tested this theory on my black car years ago to see what I would get. The car was exactly 1 sec slower w/ the same 60ft. This was of course on pump gas. I had to prove to a few idiots that Pulley doesn't = instant HP.

    Again people, whats the obsession with getting a damn pulley for a first mod? I don't get it? I just posted this same **** a few days ago. Who gives a ****? It ain't gonna get you laid.

    The ONLY way with just a CAI you'll be able to run a smaller pulley safely is if you have unleaded race fuel, not sure what octane, but you'll need it to kill the 15 degrees of KR you'll have as it sits (I bet its getting 5 degrees of KR as it sits now anyway). Octane level you'd have to play with. Is this worth it? No and I'd doubt you'd be much faster either.

    Mod properly or don't mod at all. Unless you like you're **** not to work properly...
