How was the install on the pulley? Pretty quick n' easy? When you get a pulley for 8-Ball just go with a 2.2" and then you'll never drive hers again.

Thats a bit to small Pete...2.2" ...thats for the M62, you gotta get a bit bigger for the M90, but its still smaller then stock
Except for after the first time he steps on the gas in his car and it bogs down a lot and then the engine blows up from detonation. Then he will have to drive hers. A 2.2" pulley is not a good idea on an M90, even with a lot of mods you don't want to go much smaller than 2.6" (and you would have to have a lot of mods to be able to run that size pulley). The M62 is what requires the little 2.2" pullies.

My bad...I meant 3.2 but they only have 3.25 anyway. 
Thanks

Nice kill man. I raced a 2.0 eclipse, non-turbo during the summer and I have a non sc'rd bonneville but I killed him pretty badly, not sure what model it was, but it was pretty quick off the line, but I am thankful that the raw power and torque of bonnevilles can kill cars that there not suppose to. I love my bonnie, and your ssei looks great. I can't wait to get my ssei soon. I have noticed people talking about smaller pulleys for the supercharger makes it so much more powerful, why is that? Again great kill, people in eclipses think there all that in a bag of potato chips and then they lose to a 4 door family car, well that is what mine is considered. I love it. Take care man.

A smaller pulley causes the SC to spin faster, providing more boost. Other mods are required before doing that, and there are some drawbacks if not done correctly.
