That's a good point, I was kinda thinking that way too. With a fully balanced rotating assembly, and shorter stroke, I should be able to run more horsepower with less harmonics and vibration. That is one of the main goals for this project.
Either way, my bed is already made, so now I will...
I called them to ask. I'll be ok, better then if it was the stock pulley. For higher horsepower they would use a larger diameter custom pulley, but there's no imaginary line at 500hp. At some point the dampener may not offer as much protection as it does at lower hp levels, but the stock one...
That's news to me. :aigo: Last time I called ATI about a custom pulley they told me 6 months and $800! Why is the pulley only be good to a certain horsepower? I could see if it was good to a certain rpm, but how would the hp affect the pulley?
Or maybe he has a bad rod end or balljoint. I would have an alignment shop take a look at that asap. Or maybe put it up on jackstands, and steer the wheel both ways by hand and see if it steers freely.
I've been planning my new setup using the cold start injector hole for the afpr, and using a y to feed fuel at both ends. I don't need the cold start injector with the standalone.
You know what works to plug the stock bov hole, and is super cheap? A 30mm freeze plug! It fits nice and tight, and since there is no pressure there you don't have to worry about it popping out.
You would increase the timing at the point at which you go from vacuum into boost. Then you roll back the timing as you get up to a few psi. You also can increase the timing after the torque peak.
One thing the stock ECU does do for you is let you run more boost on pump gas, because it ratards the timing based off of what it reads from the knock sensors. That is good and bad though. Retarding the timing will loose some torque. The power you make at full boost will not necessarily be...
