    pulley.. pullies.. pulley.. oh no.. :rolleyes:

    Its all related... chill.

    and that was the 2.8 pulley that deformed.. after years of use and heat.. no puller would have gotten that bitch off. cheap or not. plus.. its a pulley, didnt think I'd need top of the line, expensive as shit for one use, tools.. I've done it before. We tried heat, cooling the shaft, etc. nothing would budge it. plus, once it deformed, it HAD to come off.. so eff it. results.

    huge thanks to @BillDaCat8 for helping getting it taken care of.

    I'm still running the factory injectors with the factory TRD tune, plus an upgraded fuel pump. I still bury my AEM in the 10's with the 2.6 pulley.

    Honestly at your elevation out there I think you can go smaller. Max boost I hit was like 4, which it was usually around 3.6-3.8. Just keep an eye on your A/F ratio. (I have the 2.85 pulley as well)

    So I've been running the NA 87 octane tune for a bit on my stock 2010 TRD OR with automatic transmission. Definitely feel a little more punch overall. Shifts seem crisper but still smooth. I have not tried the 91 octane tune yet.

    One thing I have noticed, I have bounced off the rev limiter prior to shifts at WOT. Not sure if this is something that needs to be addressed? @OVTune

    I have just limited time with the tune but the fuel economy seems slightly improved.

    I've always got the best mileage when running the highest octane tuning allows for. Sure, it costs more. But the benefits are really worth it to me. I go the extra mile, and cost of methanol. Everytime I punch it I smile. And get better mileage the rest of the time.

    I'd like to see a 93 octane NA tune since i cant really find 91 octane gas around me, 91 tune would be senseless

    Better than no tune. Its not going to hurt using 93 with a 91 tune. :notsure:

    Always use an octane as high if not higher than your tune.

    I only have 92 available here. 93 tune seems fine. When I get on it I'm probably 110 octane:burnrubber:

    Not sure about sucker, but I have been waiting the entire time for some data on NA, besides butt-dynos, to help me justify $$$.

    In my opinion I'd do it if I were you. Hp costs money. This mod I'm glad I did unlike some. I've heard of this elusive v2 update. No idea when its actually available. I'll update as soon as I can get it!
