    Not sure what you mean by treating, I havent done anything but a short test drive with the car in its current configuration. From previous experience with just the 3.0 pulley and the intercooler with a ubend delete and cold air intake It was a beast as far as I was concerned way faster than anything else anyone in my high school had. This was about 8-9 years ago back in 2006-2007

    Ok gotcha... I would watch out lowering even if you are scanning .. I chipped 2 pistons on a 2.8 e85 genv headers xp cam stg3 ported head build and i was scanning aeroforce wise..... Anything after a 2.8 is pushing it in my opinion.. Better off adding timing...

    Dont tell Frosty that, hell argue that one lol. He gained more power going to a 2.55.
