3.4 " pulley

[des19]

Hi i was wondering if my setup would be suitable to drop in a 3.4 " pulley. I have an 04 grand prix gtp with K&N intake, magnaflow mufflers and a 3" downpipe. I didnt get a u bend delete because this year doesnt need it. Do I have enough flow to drop in a 3.4 pulley?

Thanks.

Since you have an '04+ car...it doesn't have a U-Bend from the factory...which is why it is listed for the '97-'03 cars only.

If you bought a 3" Downpipe...and your car even had the U-Bend...it would have gotten rid of it regardless.

Also, since your a GenV'd car...3.6". That's like a 3.4" on a GenIII. So the only real mod you have is a CAI/DP...since mufflers don't do anything for performance. You will however want to find someone local that can tune.

A tune will net more gains than most any mod.

also do u need to swap the bands if dropping in a smaller pulley?

I'd at least do a PLOG on the front before dropping to a 3.6, but that's me.

Bands?

belts = bands.

I figured as much...just being me.

belts/bands whatever my point being do u have to swap belts to go down to a smaller pulley

If your doing a PLOG.. might as well do headers.

Not when your going from a 3.8" to a 3.6"...two tenths of an inch isn't going to make a difference much at all.

my question was would it be safe running a 3.4 pulley. stock headers no plog.

But wait Renfield!

You can use those flies to trap spiders!
And those spiders to catch birds!
The birds will in turn attract a nice plump cat!
The only investment is time! How could you possibly lose?!
