What Pulley & Tune please

I don't want to stir any battles over who's the best. But, since I haven't been on here in a long time I think am ready to pull the plug and unleash the beast so what pulley size and what tune do you all recommened. Also, what is the best company you can recommend for aftermarket warranty once the factory warranty is void.

Kleemann (168), Renntech (168 or 172) or Evosport (172). I've got the confidence as well as the convenience in Kleemann being right down the road so having Cory work on my car is an absolute blessing. I run the 168 pulley, headers and their tune. I'm very very happy with the quality and power their products put down. The car is super responsive, very quick and still just as comfortable to drive as stock. Puts a very big on my face. Just what I have on my car coming from bone stock. I'm sure most will scold you to use the search button

For 1/4 mile purposes, I hear the winning combo is actually a mix of different components: ASP's 180 mm pulley + Jeremy tune (OE Tuning) + FF (Chris) long-tube headers but, honestly, I think all of the companies mentioned above are very good at what they do and will likely transform your car to an even stronger beast

Jerry Tune and ASP made 172 pulley from Eurocharged was what I went with. Make sure you get the right installer, lots of issues stem from a crank bolt not being torqued down to the right spec.

Really! you are looking for more allready? I just bought the throttle boddy for $126 on http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=380244233139 I will be doing Jerry tune with pulley, throttle body (82mm) and Heat exchanger from eurocharged.

Yea I want a little more. I'm looking at header or manifold and then a TB and I think that will be it for awhile. Rims are on their way audio system is partially installed. That should hold me over for awhile.

PLM Headers Are a Really Nice Option for the Headers on the 5.5l. Singh Autosport did the ECU/TCU Tune. Really fun to sneak up people on the fwy

The wheels are 360 Forged and they drive so smooth they are like factory wheels.

Those are the wheels I was going to buy. They are all "dat & a bag of chips". I instead went with 20" Modulare Forged H1's.

They guys at Motorwerks do a great job. Install of the pulley has had no issues.

Only thing I'm struggling with is I did the phenolic spacers at the same time and I'm battling to keep the belt on the pulley as it's now an odd length. A 514 belt just shreds and a 525 belt pops off occasionaly.
