I want to pully my o4 comp g and i already have a CAI a down pipe and colder tstat in about a week i am getting some headers and colder plugs. How small of a pully can i run or whast else do i need to get to run a smaller pully?
 


One of the guys I work with has a friend who tunes alot of the gtp's around my town from what they tell me. they said with a tune, headers, cai, 160 tstat, colder plugs i can run a 3.2 pully. I have herd online that with my motor i need to cam or intercool to drop below a 3.6 or i will get knock. Also i swaped a motor for a friend in the same car and his motor had a series 2 stamp on the block so im guessing my motor also has it because there the same excat car so my question is why do it say series 2 on the block and series 3 on the cover for the motor?
 
You have a series 3 in your comp g but a 3.2 will chip a piston very quickly. The blocks are the same gm was lazy and didn't want to stamp series 3 on the block.
 


A 3.2 wont happen w/o a cam or intercooler or both and of course you'll more than likely have to upgrade to bigger fuel injectors. You'll probably be able to drop until a 3.6 if your not knocking and get a good tune and you should be happy.
 
Scan first, then pulley drop.

A 3.6 is as far as you can really go on a basic pulley drop tune.

Did anyone other than me laugh at the contradiction in this post? You just stated that one should scan first before dropping pulleys. Then stated a a certain pulley size for a "basic pulley drop tune." However if one scans an individual may very well be able to drop past a 3.6 on a "basic pulley drop tune." *Insert Monocule smilie*

Cam or intercooler to go below 3.6. What? Where exactly did you read that?

How big of a difference will a 3.6 and headers make?
Any drop in pulley size will net an increase in the butt dyno.
