I probably forgot some things. Oh well, I got most of it.

Note that I purposely left off things like spark plugs and ARP bolts. For the sake of brevity, little things like that will just be assumed to be appropriate for the rest of your mods. Reading what size bolts you used won't help us get an idea of what your car is like.

For the sake of brevity

You're kidding right notfred?

 

[JC]

Ummm....what cam are you running?

 

[SWirth86]

Wow a lot of mods done...
how much do you think it cost you to do all that?



No mods on any of my cars, except for new head units and speakers, but thats nothing exciting.

I have really been out of the 'performance upgrade' scene for quite a while now.
I do have a fairly good understanding of 'ported and polished intake', cams, headers, tuned exhausts, etc.
I am lost as to what 'pulleys' do to increase an engine's performance.

 

[gUEv]

less rotating mass..

 

[JC]

Underdrive pulleys allow the accessories to turn at a slower speed, therefore they consume less HP.

Less power used turning things like power steering pumps and alternators leaves more for the wheels. That's the theory anyway. I've heard mixed reports about how well they work. I've also heard of charging and cooling problems when using them. Not worth 5-10hp to have my car overheat, to me.

Although, some people don't have any problems with them and pick up a tenth or two in the 1/4 mile, so maybe it's a YMMV kinda thing.

the title should be:

"so, ATOT car guys, click to to see me show off my really, really long list of car mods to try and impress you all, while receiving compliements to boost my ego because I'm an attention whore."

Yeah, its slows down the alternator and water pump, and the speeds up the crank. I've personally never overheated, but i did have an alternator die on me, but i don't know if it was from the underdrive pulleys or it was just old. But i did feel a difference when i put them on.

OK - gotcha!!

its lowered, has 17's, tinted windows and a pretty mean lookin' exhaust. I have clear corners and turn signals up front but that's about it. I intend to leave it that way as well.
