Upgrade Question
Upgrade Question
hello everyone,
got 2 questions for anyone that could help.
1 - what is the lowest reduction pulley that a 210hp can take without either detonating or succumbing to heat soak?
2 - i have a snow performance methanol injection kit i originally had on my old truck years ago...would i need another tune if let’s say i put a 17-19% on with a 50/50 mixture? or will the 210hp tune handle this?
thanks

Most customers that have a JCW actually end up going to a 17% pulley. It will work great for a street car, but if you were going to track the car or run at high RPM all the time we would only recommend going to a 15%. Both will gain you more low end and power across the band.

so a JCW tune will handle the 17% with out a detonating problem? i understand heat soak starts becoming an issue when going greater percent pulley, but a 17% is safe for spirited driving?
okay cool.
thank you!
