1-4 quickly? If we can attribute that to the porting and polishing (from my experience on the 62, I think we can), that'* a significant gain by itself.

if you have all stock pulleys I believe you go to a 3.5 pulley on the bottom SC Idler pulley.

No way am I changing the lower idler until I have a need to take off the motor mount. It'* behind it in S2 B'villes.

I swapped up the tensioner to 3.5".. looks pretty good and an easy swap when you are doing the pulley.

I know I have to change that pulley today on my car. I thought a 3.5 pulley on the tensioner would hit the mount ? How is the PCM relearning the pulley now?

And underdrive waterpump pulley hits the mount. A 3.5 fit great on the tensioner.

Today is pretty good.. you know the weather.. nice...cool...

Checked a couple things Rogue clued me in on.. awaiting a shipment from Intense.

Ahaaa

The old adjustable fuel pressure regulator trick

That'* what worked for me last couple of years. Raise the pressure by about 4-6 psi and that will kill your KR with a little bit of cool richness.

I have mine set at 58 psi. Stock was 52 psi max.
