I have the original Needswings manifold tune on there. The AF ratio with stacked Code 3 mid pulley was 11.5-12.5. Your safest bet would be to put a 178 on there, but the 185 will make more power as long as the intake temps don't get too hot. I was making 19psi with the stacked setup, so if they still make the 181 that might be a better option then going 185, since we know the tune will support it for sure.

Cruzin, the car felt pretty good with the stock pulleys. I'd estimate 12.5-12.6@ 109-110(full street trim), considering It lost about 50hp once the aftermarket pulleys were removed and I ran the 12.0@115 prior.
tks man its in the garage right now (keeping out of the rain) i have my daughter for a few weeks so my attention is directed there so wanted to get some more info on all this so once she goes back to her moms i can jump on it Ill have your license plate mailed back to you Monday.. well the wife will I just got to take it off. ohh and i don't have your add lol almost forgot :P


so far what i understand (and pls correct me if I'm wrong)
code 3 for ease of installation and price alone.
safest bet would be to put a 178 on.
181 if they still make them for more power.
185 for the most power at this time but got to watch the intake temps.

If i get a data logging tool should that make a difference in my choice. such as DashDAQ Touch Screen Display and Data Logger Combo, also found PLX Kiwi Wifi - Connect your iPhone / iPod Touch to your car's OBD2 OBDII Port. scene i already have the PLX wide band AFR hooked up would be cool to use my ipone with it to (as in what would be best for future upgrades)

and if I stacked the 181 with the code 3 would that be to much?

just idea's

tks for the help
