You should get a tune on your car asap, it will make a big difference. you will feel just as big of a power increase as you did when you added the pulley if not more.
So true- years ago when I had my....*don't laugh* Hyundai Tiburon, a Supra pulled up to me at a light. It was one of those lights where the lane merged after the intersection. I figured what the heck- I my as well try. Well I did my best launch I could (w/ 140hp) and actually lunged forward ahead of him. By the time the lanes merged he was by my side and had to back off and file in behind me.
Let me tell you- he...was...pissed! He flashed his brights at me and proceeded to ride my bumper for the next mile or so. Needless to say I was blown away that the Supra didn't kill me from the dig. I chalked it up to turbo lag- which, in retrospect, was probably the case. That and he probably didn't think the cheesy Hyundai was going to try him.
