    I know winter is coming up shortly and I have been puttin mods on the car to run a 3.4 setup. I just installed headers over the weekened along with 180 tstat al 104 plugs and my cai has been on for awhile now. I just got my intense pcm in today along with pully puller. I been reading that during winter kr is a real b####. So my question is would it advisable to put my pully on or just run my 3.8 till spring

    I will just buy a 3.8 pulley for my mps incase things go bad, but would any of you guys recomend runnin a 3.8 on a tuned pcm. Would it mess anything up? I ask because I have to send my core back so I won't have my stock one any more

    It'll make it either dump fuel or run lean as hell time to time...so it could be causing a misfire...do you have any SES lights?
