Procharger guys, who runs a 3.7 pulley?

The guys I bought my Procharger kit from said that Procharger spec'd this pulley (3.7) for my car with 2" primary headers, and should work fine. I am just wondering if anyone else has this set up and what kind of power did you make? Please specify if you have a M6 or auto. Did you feel the need for a meth kit? This is will be on the stock fuel system, stock heads, stock everything.

Thanks!

You will most likely run out of fuel at that pulley size without meth.


I'm fairly sure we are talking about a P1SC with a 3.7 pulley. Expect about 11 to 11.5psi depending on tempratures and how high your tuner revs up

P1X, but close enough, and stage 2 intercooler.

That seems a bit high to me with just going to a 3.7 pulley. I’d be interested to see what you’d actually make.

Only people with Meth or LT4 fuel systems, are the ones I see running a 3.7 pulley.
I am assuming it was speced that way because its a "tuner kit" and had a requested boost level by the dealer.

This was actually what I wanted to run initially. Meth and 3.7 on a P1SC. People scared me away from using that much meth but ended up getting a D1SC on a 4.25 pulley and squeezing out about 10 to 10.5 psi anyway haha. Layed down 630 on a dynojet that baselines these cars at about 400whp.

OP; Either keep the pulley and get lt4 fuel/meth or go with a larger pulley. You're going to run out of fuel on that combo imo

Just an update, I spoke with someone at Procharger over the phone about the pulley size and after telling him what the elevation was here, and giving him my serial number and mods, he said I should see 8-9lbs of boost and I should be fine with the stock fuel system.

I guess we'll see.

Fired it up today and it sounds great.

One concern, should the belt be that far back against the tensioner pulley?

I also installed 5000k HID's which look great.

Next is painting the calipers red, installing drilled and slotted rotors, a new spoiler, and a few other odds and ends, then getting it tuned.

And those aren't scratches in the paint, I had wreck wrap all over it to protect it, I just haven't removed the sticky stuff off of it yet.

Congrats on the install! The belt looks about right.
