Met up with Derek (deekster_caddy) today. He helped me install the pulley and tuned up the Riv today. It feels great now. Shifts much better and the response on the throttle is awesome now. Much better mod than the FWI. smile

Only got about 2* of knock at most too. Going out tomorrow to do some more scans just to make sure. Now just waiting to hear back from intense about a cam and some headers. wink

I think I would rather have the gains all across the rpms instead of just the upper range. It looks to be more beneficial than just doing the rockers.

I went to Derek's house and he helped me with his. He has the Pulley boys puller I believe.

Yeah, I have the pulley boys puller. It's easy enough to use although sometimes will bend up the stocker because they are so tight on the shaft. SpaceBar's pulley came off easy, totally reusable - we did two that day and the second was on a GTP and it was really tight, totally torqued the stock pulley over.

Thats great! Makes a big difference, huh?

I would scan your car next to make sure your knock levels are under control....
