all im saying is you cant throw out a blanket statement like 'smaller pulleys make more power because your're making more boost'. it comes with a cost.

Ok throw a 2.55 on your car and see how much power you make.
05-12-2010
said nothing about a tune i understand that all i did is sum it up.....i know there is more to it, he said that he could make just as much power with stock pulley, its not gonna happen
05-12-2010
saying that is also a false statement. he could be running a cam, open cone, intercooler, and headers. i bet that would monster on any normal 3.4 setup car any day of the week, even on the stock pulley. get it?
05-12-2010
get it just dosent seem possible thats all
05-12-2010
more than likely not since you wont put all those parts on your car to run the stock pulley.
05-12-2010
You put that on to run a smaller one but it'd still be faster with those mods with a stock pulley than a stock car with a 3.4 pulley.Originally Posted by Bio248

I never said that. You want to run plenty of timing on a larger pulley than 9* of timing on a tiny pulley, but obviously you know more about this than me so you win.

not tryin to argue guys just what he said made no sense thats all sorry if i sounded like a ass u guys know way more then me just felt a lil sarcasm.....
05-12-2010
and plus the only thing i dont have to run a 3.4 is headers.....got a plog
05-13-2010
You don't NEED headers to run a 3.4". It has been proven, right. Does it mean it is the best thing for your car? Maybe, maybe not. The reason everyone says go the header route nowadays is because they are readily available and cheap. I bet the Speed Daddy Headers shipped to your front door are cheaper than a DP/PLOG from ZZPerformance...they'll make more power and support whatever mod level you want to get to. I'd be willing to bet your just like everyone else who gets these cars and runs down to the basic 3.4" setup and then you get bored...so you buy rockers...or headers...and then a smaller pulley...and then you get bored with that so you sell the rockers and buy a cam and even a smaller pulley.
But, its your car...so do what you want. If your going to contradict the advice we give you when you ask our opinion...that is what doesn't make sense. Why ask in the first place then when your not really going to listen anyways?

Well put as always!
05-13-2010
ok i never contradicted anyone......if u read i disagreed with someone that said they could be faster on a stock pulley.......ur blowing this out of proportion.........lets relax take some time to read the post then u will realize what im talkin about.......i AGREE with all of u, it didnt seem possible to be faster on a stock pulley, so i called it out......everything ive learned from all of u i have never questioned
05-13-2010
thats the thing about the internet, every one has a word.....first page people were tellin me to sell the plog buy headers, ive done quite a bit of reading on here and that didnt seem right, i have heard of people with a good tune and the bolt ons i have run a 3.4, then i get blasted with all this ****, i never even said anything to any of you
05-13-2010
if all youre looking for is a 3.4 setup youll be fine with a plog and downpipe. however, if you want any farther than that (which you will once you see how much power you make on a 3.4) then you'll have been best off buying headers from the start.
05-13-2010
true....the car came with dp and plog.....so as of now im not out any money, whats the resale on the plog and dp?
