Questions on 2.0 and 2.2 pullies for S1 L67
I saw pulleyboys has a 2.0 pulley available. Anyone tried it? Pro'*/con'*? My plan is to get some normal scheduled maintenance out of the way first, then it'* on to the mods. I plan on new NGK TR-55 plugs, new stock wires, Custom made CAI, 180º drilled t-stat, and then on to the pulley. But which one do I choose?What kind of HP gains from each could a person expect?I understand the new idler pulley is necessary for using the 2.2" pulley, but will this work for the 2.0?
Thanks for your input.

I wouldn't go smaller than 2.2". Smaller would cause power loss due to high intake temps. Use the ZZP tensioner pulley. And I like my NGK TR-6 plugs, they are a range cooler than the TR-55'*.

I agree. The ONLY way I would even consider a 2" pulley (even with my mods) is if I was still running water injection.....full time.
2.2", stock belt, zzp oversized idler......this idler is a requirement, not a suggestion.
Moving to forced induction.

Hold up a second boys, DJ SHO you have a 95 ssei, so you dont want to put on the 2.2" pulley, it will generate WAY too much heat without major mods, go with the 2.5", quite a few members use this size on their 94-95 ssei'* and have great results. I have a 95 ssei too, but I'm not far enough along for my pulley swap yet. Let us know how it goes.

Hey thanks for the input guys. But two questions now. Why the difference in pulley sizes from 93'* to 94'*? Aren't both running series 1 motors? The other question is, will I still be capable of acheiving 25-30hp and at least 40 tq with the 2.5 pulley and the CAI (instead of using the 2.2")?
