Dave, this is the deal I got last year with lethal %15 off sale. Get the stage 1 with whipple calibration and flare tool, Billet 1900 CFM throttle body and 72 lb injectors. The fans are not really needed. Oh yeah and like many ask for the 3.625" pulley instead of the 3.725" at no charge.

Hey thanks for the heads up. As ludicrous as it sounds I am trying to be budget minded, on this upgrade. I am not setup to use a ton of power right now, so stage 1 seems fine to me. I figure I will add pieces to the SC kit as I make the car more capable. The sale and the fact I have the money on hand at the moment is driving my purchase for this time frame. Otherwise I had coil overs and exhaust on the list next.

As far as the Pulley is concerned, is that just a future proof mod, or how does that work out with the Whipple box tune? Like I said I am not trying to set any world records at the moment.

I have a balancer on the way and I am going to order up OPG and CT.

The stage 1 and 2 kits come standard with a 3.75" pulley. You can go down to a 3-5/8"or possibly one size smaller than that with 93+ octane without needing a new calibration.

If you have any other questions please let me know.

Thanks, Jared

How does one request the smaller pulley? Do I need to phone in my order?

How about us guys with 91 octane, how small or pulley can we use with the standard calibration? What happens if we go too small?

Too small a pulley will invoke the knock control to pull timing killing power. I know guys that are running the 3.625" pulley with 91 and no knock at all. It depends on your engines needs and good fuel used. You just contact Lethal and they will change the pulley size.

Well I was thinking about ordering tonite, I didn't get a response on the pulley question. Maybe I will give them a call tommorow. How much hp is the 3-5/8 worth, is it worth the hassle?

 

[Roh92cp]

Just call Lethal or put it in the note that you want the smaller pulley 3.625" . Each pulley size is worth approx. 1 psi.

I have been super happy with Whipple flight control/tune. The guys at Whipple have done a phenomenal job on this kit, and their customer service is top notch. I had an issue with my fan relay harness, so I gave them a call. I was instantly connected to Jeff Tiller who worked through the problem with me, and once we determined the part was the problem, they shipped a replacement for FREE.

The flight control is super helpful as well because you can set your tire size for correct speedometer readings.

I would recommend Whipple and their tune ALL day to anyone.

The 10 rib looks good but is not needed for pulley belt traction. The 6 rib will hold with the smallest pullies.

Do you know if any who has tried lower then 3.5" on 6rib? I tried 3.5" but im at 6700' so I need more

I can't remember, but Dustin Whipple says the 6 rib will hold to 3".

 

[DAVECS1]

It is on order, looking forward to it.
