    Not too much more, Its got a 3.4 pulley, cam, pcm, intake, headers, exhaust. Possibly a smaller pulley and injectors.

    May as well ask while im here. I was thinking 103's with my setup and im under the understang that you want as hot of a spark as you can get before knock occurs from that hot spark. Kinda like timing-The most you can get without kr. No KR with me. so should i just go with some new 104's? Mine need to be replaced so thats why I ask

    My first post here...I just installed some e3.62's and new delco wires this weekend as well as a KnN panel filter. I instantly got better throttle response and what I believe to be more hp's. Still on my first tank of gas since the switch so we'll see how they do with mpg's.
    Plugs 2, 4, and 6 were a PIA to pull btw! be prepared to spend some time on these 3!

    Alright, so i just went out and purchased some 104's, but when i pulled one of them i realized im already running 103's. I only run about 12psi od boost and it runs a 14.2 1/4. do you think i should swap for the 104's?

    Yeah, put the 104's in. Your old 103's are probably do for a change anyways.


    ... and whats telling you that your getting 12psi.?

    i think his boost gauge might be off tho, with a 3.4 isent that about 10 psi, and a cam usally bleeds off some boost. but if he really is boosting that, holly crap wait till he gets a smaller pulley, 20++

    ! PSI per 0.1 pulley drop is average. So 12 sounds right since he was starting from 8 psi wich is stock......You know becuase 8+4=12 for the special people like blowfish ....LOL but im a pansy so what do i know LOL
