Finally got my pulley installed

[max_boost]

I finally had my pulley and plugs installed on Saturday. There was a nice boost in power and it added some much needed 5th gear passing power. The car runs a lot smoother now too, which is a nice bonus.
Somehow I managed not to get a speeding ticket on the four hour drive home. I don't know how though because I was forced to downshift and punch it every time the road opened up

Now I need to get a billet idler pulley and a 2.9 to slap on there.

Thanks G Cham 05 silver redline and BlkCSS for installing it for me.

Here are the pics

It was someone from Redlineforums that had the pulley puller. His name there is "G Cham 05 silver redline". He lives in Monroe.

Are you running a 3.15? I am trying to decide if I want a 3.15 or a 2.9 for daily driving.

I still gotta get off my lazy ass and put my 3'' pully on also.

I went with the 3.15. I'm going to wait until I get Stage 1 to go any smaller. The two guys that installed my pulley both have a 2.9 though and they've done extensive data loggin with a tech 2 and haven't seen any problems. One is on a 05 RL and the other is a 06 SS.

I talked with Gary a little last night at Damon's in AnnArbor. I think I am just going to go with a 2.9" He seemed confident in the stock fuel system up to that point.

Sounds good. I'm going to be ordering a 2.9 soon. I just want to wait for BF to finish their billet tensioner.

Im glad you like it. Garry put my hub on when he was with forward motion.

I ordered my 2.9 and a 2.7 today from Billetflow. I also ordered the idler pulley they offer. It was only an extra $25 so I figured it was worth it. Does anyone know if machining is required for the 2.7 pulley?

No machining. The 2.7 has the same ID as the 2.9 and 3.15
