not worth it man, the n1 pully is used for race motors,drag, just to free up the revs. Less load =rev faster. the ligthweigth pulley dont do much, get an other power adder. header,intake,exhaust,throthle body.

I have all those except the throttle body and everyone has told me ther are not worth it. do you have a different opinion? I have a skunk2 intake mani thats not installed but I don't even know if it would be worth my time to install it.

wouldn't a 68mm be a little big for a n/a motor? I was thinkin 64. I don't want to have to do valve springs if I do cams so do you know the lift and duration on the itr cams?

CTR cams are better than ITR, and they can be used with the stock valve train. Yes, 68 sounds too big for N/A. Check out Unorthodox racing for their pulleys http://www.unorthodoxracing.com/. You can purchase the pulleys at http://www.stillen.com/.


Edit: You will have to delete A/C to run any of those pulleys.

But are ctr cams safe to use with a factory valvetrain? motor has 102k miles.

BTW on the Stillen website it will tell you the amount of HP that the new pulley will free up, I think the set I was looking at awhile ago said between 10-14.
