    3.8" is stock pulley size. after a tune buy a modular pully system and you can maybe get away with a 3.6" pulley until you get rockers and perhaps some porting for a 3.4"

    if i were you, i would just get all the requirements for the 3.4" setup, if you think its fast now then you will love the power you will have after

    You can, is it good for it not really, will it blow it up probably not, do you get more power, no, Just some low end until the pcm starts pulling timing.

    i want to do a 3.6 pulley. mostly because i dont wanna burn up my tranny and i dont have the money right now for all the extra mods. my only problem is that the only pulley upgrades i see are 3.5 or lower. where could i get a 3.6? anybody know how much power i would gain with a 3.6 setup with supporting mods and a tune?

    you do but, not enough. Just sell you plog and get headers, then you will be set.

    Look at pfyc.com, check out the pulley boys quick change system. You can get a 3.8" pulley if you like.

    Yes you can tune kr out. Timing>boost. Less boost more timing = win.

    There is a deffinate diff in the stock 3.8 and 3.4 your flow mods are fine for a 3.4 set up just not beyond that

    as long as you have 104 plugs 180 tstat and tune your pretty much fine I would scan for kr after though just to make sure

    why do you guys care about how much power you get from a different pulley?

    I'm willing to bet I could make more power on a 3.8" pulley than you could on a 3.4 or 3.6.

    All depends on what mods you have with it and the engine itself.

    ...since when? you dont know enough on the subject if that is your thought process. to a certain extent you are correct, but a car that is running more timing will not only 'feel' faster, but usually will be faster.

    fueling > timing > boost

    boost is the last thing you add to the system when you tune.
