If you don't want to do good tuning, then do not add a larger pulley.
I guess I'm OK running the big pulley - with a good dyno tune and running in a slightly cooler, sea level environment, I was beginning to worry about
why I was actually running some not-so-bad IAT's with the 185 - I stated in my post when I installed the 185 pulley that I would have to tame the IAT's but I have now decided to go even beyond just a pump and a HE replacement.

I'm not worried about my mods in one bit and forum members with "Pulley Envy" won't sway me.. I'm wise and brave enough to know how to deal with people who want to tell me what I should or should not be doing.

Thanks Jerry for your honest insite and answers..for the betterment of all forum members.
