The pulleys are one of the last remaining mods from the previous owner. Not sure how removing them could help but certainly willing to listen. The SSV I bought more than two years ago before anyone knew its nothing more than engine bay dress up. Either way are I'm more than happy with the end results. The look, sound, feel and the install are awesome. Big props to Jack (Boostcrzy) for the tune. That kid knows is sh**!! And yes, it was an expensive (probably way too expensive) set up but aren't all hobbies? Anyway, who said you can't buy happiness?

congrats on the setup and numbers.

+2 on the torque numbers being so low.

look into getting a tranny cooler, easy and cheap upgrade for A/T!

Also a valve body upgrade, its worth it for FI cars.

good luck

BRO-dy....There is a thread on here about Lightweight Pulleys vs Balance weight pulleys and what harm the UR and other lightweight pullys have cause in the pass to FI motors. Zero issues reported with NA.

I am in the same boat - '03 auto...

I always felt like I would have to raid an entire account to
get any real improvement FI-wise. I would really like a ride-along
to get an idea of the $-powr ratio.

What gear was the dyno pull at? I don't see the TC lock up so I'm guessing 3rd.
