You have all of that stuff and are on a 3.4 still? I only have headers, 180* tstat, AL104's, Poly Mounts, Full Custom Catback, Ported SC, Ported TB, and Custom Tune. I run a 3.25 pulley with minimal 1.4* kr but I'm pretty sure a new tune will kill the KR.

Fastest i ran before the Headers, Ported TB, and Ported SC was 14.1 @ 98mph.

Come Spring i'm taking all of the dead weight out of the trunk for a few passes. I just gotta label all of my stereo wires so i know where to put them back at. :th_laugh-lol2:

Yea still on teh 3.4 mainly cause i wanna get tuned first and fix a few other issues just to stay safe
Little nervous about toasting my engine.

Best/smartest post I've seen on here in months. A cam and intercooler does not mean you can just run a 2.8 pulley, nor does just a cam mean you can run a 3.2" pulley. Hell, we used a 3.4" or 3.3" pulley on a cammed genV regal for weeks because of fueling issues and still managed to run 12's with that pulley and issues.

I'm running a xp cam on my 04 GP and I run a 3.3. It's faster than the 3.2 with less timing.

all you need is a little energon and a lot of luck

energon?

its a quote from the original transformers movie from '86. they used energon cubes to survive on earth. ok now to be serious for a second. get a tune, it is the best mod for these cars forget cams and titanium catbacks. a properly tuned 3.4 pulley car will run low 13's. might even hit a high 12 with a nice 60 foot time
