Depends on how much knock you have right now with the stock pulley. I managed to get zero knock so I could have gone one smaller without meth probably.

Yeh I'm just looking to go one smaller

IBM camaro · 08-17-2014, 02:25 AM

Here is the mod list plan so far after I've had the kit for 500 miles.

1. AFR wideband 200$
2.3.48 pulley with belt 120$ or so
3. Meth kit 500$
4. LFX ported intake manifold 700$
5. IAT relocate 40$
6. 52 mm gauge housing 70$
7. Quad gauge pack 200?
8. Throttle controler 150$

Number 8,1,5 are happening very soon.

2000 or so dollars left for this engine build should be an amazing performing v6

3.48" is 2 steps smaller, I have 4 degrees of knock retard and a 14:1 AFR, I do NOT recommend doing that without a meth kit. 3.60" is 1 step smaller.

If you do use Methanol injection, this is what I use:

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/sno-40008

It is pre-mixed, 49% Methanol, 51% water with red dye and fragrance for leaks. I HIGHLY recommend buying a transfer pump from O' Reilly or any other place and wearing gloves when transferring it from the bottle to the tank. Also wear goggles to protect your eyes. 100% methanol is a poison, can cause blindness, coma, or death. Diluted methanol is safer, but still handle it with extreme care, no need to take chances.

Methanol kit is still worth it, it provides high octane and IAT reduction. Just respect the stuff.

Ok guys car is getting towed to chevy key is stuck in ignition and in park it will turn on and free the steering wheel but I can not take it out and I can't switch gears it was driving perfectly fine I until this problem and the trunk release button and both 12v outlets don't work everything else functions

sycraft · 08-18-2014, 10:35 PM

check battery voltage first

IBM camaro · 08-18-2014, 11:16 PM

I jumped it to make the voltage go up and it still didn't solve the problem none of the PRNDM plate lights up nor does the 12v plug ins I'm really scared about this one

sycraft · 08-18-2014, 11:24 PM

check all fuses, side of dash and under hood

IBM camaro · 08-19-2014, 11:40 PM

Car is at the dealership they are having trouble opening it

gutterball · 08-20-2014, 09:30 AM

That does sound like it might be a fuse.

IBM camaro · 08-22-2014, 01:27 PM

BCM failure here we go another 900 down the drain!

sycraft · 08-22-2014, 01:39 PM

how many miles, a BCM has nothing to do with the kit, 3/36 warranty

crc91 · 08-22-2014, 02:22 PM

Damn man that sucks about your bcm. And a question to you guys running meth on this kit. I know it isn't required for a basic ipf supercharger install but aside from extra protection would their be any advantages or disadvantages for using meth with the stock pulley?
