    Use the edit button.

    Don't post in all caps.

    Post in the correct section.

    Name your threads so people understand what you're going to talk about before clicking it.

    Take off that pulley, its causing knock and will nuke your engine if you beat on it enough.

    If you must, buy a new supercharger with a stock pulley on it. Or buy the ZZP pulley tool.

    Ultra 94 is E10. It requires a tune for best efficiency.

    I'm not e-mailing someone.

    You can run 94 without a tune...its higher octane...unless you guys do it different in Canada. Take off the 3.4"...or have fun with a bottom end purchase when you chip pistons or send them FedEx express to the oil pan.

    Posting your email in a thread like this is the quickest way to have a spam bot pick it up then start mailing you spam....

    94 is E10.

    you would benefit from a tune on all fronts.

    It being e-10 does relay make a difference. Everything here execpt 87 is e-10.

    running a 2.8 pulley on a stock motor is totally fine

    actually forget the pulley, just run a belt on the shaft itself

    I mean really? Are people really this ****ing stupid? These cars are on the verge of KR from the factory with the 3.8" pulley.....Then those same people ***** about how slow their car was (from the retarded amount of timing being pulled, no pun intended) and how the motor blew up in "that pos GTP they used to have"...... To the OP: The only mod that is gonna make your car faster is an owner mod.....aka one with a functioning brain...
