I know those stickers on that box. Do yourself a favor. Get a smaller pulley and a meth kit. Do it now and have the car tuned once.

I take baby steps. I ordered the 4.0 pulley. I have Long tube headers and no cats currently. I am thinking that this should take me to somewhere between 580-610 at the wheels.

Next step will be to get some Forgeline CF5 wheels(11 inch in back with 305 or 315 rubber). Then when this starts to feel slow, I will step down in pulley size and add Meth.

Last car was a 12 Mustang with exhaust and a TVS supercharger. I started with the 90mm pulley and stepped down to the 82mm after a few years. Car dyno'ed at 636/519 with the 82mm pulley on it.

WOOO, what a wonderful sight. I know I loved it when mine arrived:




I went with the Ti head unit upgrade and a 3.6" pulley. I'm glad I stuck with a warrantied blower (instead of the YSi) but I wish I had a smaller pulley, as even with headers and meth, I'm only at 510 rwhp horsepower (stupid air here). But, even with 510, that's still more power than the stock rubber'd rear wheels can handle in 1st, 2nd gear, even 3rd if the tires or road is cold.
