    So i have athing where i have to mod my car atleast once a month or ill go nuts soo i think i'm gonna go with a downpipe. My friend said something about hogan but i haven't really heard anything about them, and i want something cheap for now. Also i was looking at zzp mps and on the chart i remember it saying a 3.5 is reccomended for totally stock 97-03 gtps but i kind of ignored it but i think i wanna do it if it's possible without blowing up my engine. Right now i just have a zzp pcm, slp catback system and a cai, So can i get that 3.5 without blowing up my engine cause of high kr or can i get it and just get colder plugs and a tstat and i should be ok on the kr ? I just wanna feed my mod addiction.

    dont change the pulley unless you have a downpipe and all of the cheap mods (intake, t-stat, plugs).

    even then i wouldnt change it. i have a lot more done than you and im knocking up to 5* with a 3.4. a 3.5 puelly would put you pretty far up the boost ladder. open it up more before you say you want to swap pullies.

    I understand what your saying but why would zzp say 3.5 is reccomended for totally stock gtps.

    Yea i'm gonna get a dp, cause i found some nice ones on hoganperformance, now i can save some money by getting the one with out the cat and it says it's off road use only, well when they mean that do they say tht cause its really loud or cause it will cause the car to fail test emissions which i dont have to worry about in maine.

    It says off road use only because of the emissions thing. I have a friend who has a used dp for sale with a hi flow cat. I believe it is a hogan. I have a 3.6 zzp pulley for sale also, but I don't have a hub.

    Could you get a price from him on the dp please, I also like the dp from zzp.

    I just called him and it is an RT not a hogan. I have seen it, it is really nice shape, it is stainless, bolt in. He said $150 shipped. I was gonna buy it for my regal but I don't think I want to mod my regal too. I remembered what happened the last time I told myself I will only mod to a 3.4"

    I have a WBS shorty DP just sitting in the corner of the garage. Its used, but still looks fine. I got it with a set of PEMs and never used it. I got it from Erik that works for Ed Morad.

    $50 shipped?

    Without. On WBS's website, they are $80 plus shipping. Like I said, I have had it for a long time and haven't used it. Just sitting in the corner of the garage. Send me a PM if you are interested. I can get some pics tonight if you want.

    As long as your catback is stock it will bolt right up.
