    Hey all,

    I've had the maggie blower in my truck for a while now with the 2.85 pulley and stock tune and i feel like its time to give the ol' tank a bit more pep in its step. My question is how and what will the ov tuner support. Here is what i've got running through my head:

    I have a set of catted short tube headers that the cats are delaminated on. My though is to empty them out and run an 02 sim to resolve the check engine light.

    Paired with this i would run a non-catted custom y pipe and exhaust, with just a muffler of some sorts.

    I know that the fuel pump will need to be upgraded, but i'm not sure which one to run or what that involves.

    I want to slap a 2.7 pulley on it for more boost things.

    For the intake i run a snorkel with the stock box and k&n filter.

    And I'm hoping the ov tuner will support all of this without running into lean issues. Does this sound like a plan? Any potential issues i will run into?

    Thanks for any input.

    shouldn't be any issue with those mods, I don't see you going lean either.
    Only possible thing is we cannot delete check engine lights unless it is a dedicated off road vehicle.

    Nick's truck is broke more often than it is running, so I'd say it's a dedicated off road vehicle. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

    @OVTune any thoughts on ways to make more power without additional fueling?

    Not sure that I understand.. you only need additional fuel with additional boost.
    You do not need anything like a 7th injector or methanol, etc.

    Do you think i can go with a smaller pulley than the 2.7 without adding a 7th injector?

    Absolutely. With tuning of the stock ecu you don't ever need a 7th injector.
    Instead, upgrade all 6 to larger
