If I change the supercharger pulley to get more horsepower do I need to have the car tuned? I know that it woud be better if I do that but can I get a horsepower increase without doing that? Also, what pulley would you recommend for increased horsepower without additional mods (at least for now)?

Thanks

You need a tune with a pulley. I would first get a better heat exchanger.

I would also get a new pump if yours is old. Then I would tune it up, change the fluids.

After you do the above start looking for more hp. Do a search on power upgrades. Plenty of shops like Victory Road Performance, etc. will help you and steer you in the correct direction.

Try and grab a pulley/tune combo as part of a black Friday deal. I would suggest 83mm + tune for a good upgrade with minimal heat issues compared to the others. But as above make sure all maintenance and supporting mods are done first. I have used eurocharged and shardul a few times now, excellent service.

We have 83mm and tune combo on Cyber Monday sale for $590.00!!! email sales@ultimatepd.com with subject Cyber83tune

What power increase do you typically make from that?

Rear wheel gains on a dyno around 70 hp on average. You will feel game changing power with these 2 mods alone. Cold air intake adds about 25 hp more for another easy bolt on.

83mm + tune was my first mods apart from cooling. Hugely noticeable improvement in torque/power.

What's the torque increase?
Those are healthy gains for the money.

How much is your cold air intake kit with shipping to South Africa?

I’ve started my mods with HE, ic pump, 76mm clutched pulley. If I saw a major noticeable in power I’d stopped modifying and drive on. But I didn’t! The next month I swapped 82TB, didn’t see much. Then the following month I popped on cheap Chinese LTH and it’s like taking the red pill. Loved my car ever since, power, torque equal WOW! Night n day!

Still curious on the torque???

Below is a link to my post after I installed the 83mm throttle body, Eurocharged XL heat exchanger, and Eurocharged box tune:

Hope that helps.
