BTW, the link to your 2.8" pulley post has been added to the thread. Lots of good info in there.

CT, that 2.79 pulley isnt going to give gains over 2.8, no difference between the 2, plus I woul d be careful, I know I prefer a name brand on something as critical as a pulley..

I don't even understand why it's 2.79 and not 2.8
Good call on the name brand thing. This is a critical part!

Another thing we noticed is that the Pulley boyz ring weighs like half of what the stage 2 ring weighs. Its very similar in quality, and seems to work flawlessly. I will be resetting my ECU soon, but even without that it was noticably faster, especially in the 2500-4000 range. I took a few videos of acceloration and will have them up in a few. This is well worth it, and I love the extra power. I reused the blue bolts, and will keep this pulley on unless something goes wrong, in which case I will swap it back to avoid issues. MY bro gives it two thumbs up.
make sure you have
1.) an extra person
2.) a 15 mm wrench
3.) the GM stage 2 torque bits
Oh I got my CAB's installed today too. 60 bucks install. Glad I shopped arround, as Car V2 was going to charge me 180.... I was like WTF. They are pretty awesome too, but until I get to the track I wont be able to test them as much.
