Typically the best indicators for us dinosaurs is STFT, LTFT, and KR. If I were running out of injector at the top end, I would have KR.

I have zero KR with the 2.2" pulley (smallest ever successfully run on a Gen3) with the water/methanol running (at only a 30% meth mix). This is why I decided to test further down in diameter.

I'll do some ratio comparisons later to show the comparitive pulley sizes for S1 vs. S2 based on rotation/flow. While 2" may sound really spooky to a S2 nut, it'* not really TOO far out of the realm of imagination to a S1 owner.
I guess you could also install a Fuel Pressure gauge to see if FP falls off on the top end.

I have one. I bought it from you.



I don't think fuel pressure will be a problem. I have a Walbro255 and a 4bar adjustable FPR.

heh, I knew you got the regulator, forgot you bought the kit. Sounds like you have the bases covered as usual. I like the color, it screams "I'm not stock!"

One Billion horsepower.

Seriously though, the car may actually be SLOWER with the pulley. It takes more power to spin it faster, and there may not be any gains left after that and more heat created. My hope is that the water/meth injection will allow it to work. It may also be NO change from the current setup, or as little as a 5hp gain. Just something I had to try considering my zero KR issues right now.

I've got some testing to do, and I'll probably be changing pulleys at the track.

Will you be putting it on soon?

I know WHERE the new idler pulley is going. HOW to mount it is still being worked out. 2 ways of doing it.

The idler will be pusing into the long span of belt from the SC pulley to the AC compressor. Right between them, under the ICM bracket.
