    I'm having a hard time trying to choose. I think it might be possible to get away with a 3.5 but then again, I want opinions because my setup is a bit different than the typical "I want a smaller pulley on my stock gtp"

    Basically I want to get a dyno tune (i might be stuck using hptuners) on a smaller pulley. Mods...

    -L36 block
    -1.9 roller rockers
    -genV top swap
    -pacesetters
    -N* and Lq4 combo (open cone)
    -Slp catback (not that it matters, just makes my mod list longer )


    The car had 0.0* of knock (even going uphill at 35 in second gear, giving it half petal in 100* summer heat) on the stock pulley and plog/2.5" d/p combo. Now that I have headers...

    If you post the "Safely Modding" thread by bluegtp91, I will personally come to your house, ring your doorbell and slap you across face with a large fish.

    Its a toss up. I would personally try the 3.5 and back up to the 3.6 if I had to. I have a 3.5 for $35 to your door.

    Read the Safely Modding Your 3800 Thread. And once your done...read it again...and how about a third time for your bunched panties

    I say 3.6". Why? Because if your still running knock free after that you can screw with the timing and make it go stupid fast on a 3.6.

    But that is just me

    i would do a 3.5. a 3.6 is only going to be a little bit less boost. completely stock with an intake and downpipe you could probably tune a 3.5 to have no knock.
