    Just a question , What would a bigger supercharger pulley do for my engine , i was talking to someone on my facebook & he happend to know where my car came from & gave me some info i didnt know , my car had a recept when i bought it for a transmission rebuild that came to about $3000 wich is good because my car says it has 300k plus KM'S on it but this is the message i received

    "lol yea its the same car what ever ya paid you got a good deal the motor was completly rebuilt from top to bottom and the put a 2 and a half inch pully wheel on the supercharger instead of the stock one that cars puttin out about 300 hp"

    Bigger pulley would make it slower. But unless the engine is built running an intercooler and other huge mods, no way that car has a 2.5" on it.

    It all looks exactly the same as any other GTP ive ever seen , the only diffrence is , it is the fastest one ive ever drivin to be honest & this is a 98 , my friend had a 01 GTP & it was gutless really it didnt have half as much HP as this one & his has a CAI.

    I'd take it right back to the person you bought it from and get all your money back if it is running a 2.5".

    Seriously.

    dont you have to turn down the snout to fit that size pulley on?

    I'd venture to guess its a 3.5" pulley though.

    3.5 would make more sense and I do beleive you have to machine the snout for anything under 2.8

    pics anyway.
    Probably miscommunication on the pulley size. 2.5 your car would've already stopped by now.
