Trifecta stage 3 questions...

On Friday as long as everything goes as planned, I am getting a local tuner to do trifecta stage 3. My car is gm stage 2 with 77.9 pulley and injen intake, that's all. Do I need to pulley down at all? Can I without cooling or exhaust?

Not if youre getting the GM Stage 3 setup custom tuned by Trifecta. You can run any pulley size you desire. The GMS3 PCM/tune as it comes from GM is calibrated for the 76 mm (2.99") pulley. I suggest the GMS3 pulley over the GMS2 pulley though. You will make a little more power with it

*I recommend you get some cooling & exhaust mods though. The GMS3 tune benefits from a high flow exhaust setup, and having a cool intake charge is always a plus as well !

Yea I really can't wait to get it. I'm looking for a 2.9er right now. Will any 2.9 pulley bolt onto my stg 2 hub? Oh one more question, should I run 1 step colder plugs?

Just make sure to get a 4-bolt pulley for the GMS2 hub, and you should be fine. Nate at Smoothflow makes the best custom pulleys around. He made my 74 mm pulley, and I love it !!
