    looks great Bill the ported blower i got with the gtp was opened up way more on the inlet... that little dip was gone! it was an ebay porting company that the did the porting i found out later. i wish i kept that blower instead of parting it out.

    I have put 3.4 pulleys on cars and not "felt a difference".. some of the 3.4 pulley cars I have done made 250whp... thats a 60whp upgrade over stock.

    I find it hard to believe that doing something that we consider to be a degrading mod would actually produce a significant upgrade in power.

    I read something about that but the more i read into it, the more i heard about the throttle body icing over in winter.

    That doesn't happen. I have had mine blocked for two winters in Minnesota and never had it ice over.
