Torque gains from 3.4" pulley

Just curious, since I'm trying to estimate my HP and TQ when I get my pulley.

I've heard between 30 to 50 ft-lbs. (at the crank) added on to what gains I already have from my mods. Is that true?

I have heard 20-30 hp, and 40 or more lb/ft of torque, assuming no timing reduction from KR.

40-50 crank should be right, 30 hp gain at the crank.

Your tires will wish you would've waited though.

I can verify 40-50ft.lbs, and about 20-25hp assuming no KR.

You can gain THAT much from just a pulley? How much would i gain with my SER1 L67? I am just curious I would like some more grunt.
