    So I've been prepping myself to tackle this camshaft and gasket overhaul for my engine, and I am positive I have everything, except for a smaller supercharger pulley. I don't plan on driving hard core until I get a tune and I just wanted to know which size pulley I should go with based on a VS cam, SD Headers build? I was thinking 3.4, but I'm not sure. Any ideas?

    Will depend on scans & tuning results... I would think a 3.25 might be in your future but a 3.4 would be a solid start

    Is there any harm to running the 3.4 when daily driving (not in boost)? Also, is it worth the extra 150 to get wideband support for the hptuners interface

    3.4 would be my guess and yea DD will be fine as long as the tune is up to par and your not knocking you'll be fine.
