Machined Snout...

Hey guys, I was looking around and Intense now offers a machined snout that will hold as low as a 2.5" pulley! I have to say though with the cost of a core charge, if you live a reasonable distance from them...make sure they have one in stock and just go there. The machined snout is $199, the core is $500 though with how hard it is to come by.

Can you imagine a 2.5" pulley though? Talk about a belt slipping even with the larger idler pulley they have! What do you guys think it would make boost-wise? 20...21 pounds? I'm definitely thinking of saving up and gettinig that and a stage 3+ SPEC clutch and going up there and having them tune it for me...

You can't run a 2.5 without going with bigger injectors (60 lbs not the 42.5)

Never thought about that. Oh well though, I could sell the 42.5lb on eBay for almost as much as I paid for them. I only have about 1000 miles on my 42.5...if that.
