I'm needing help selecting an upper pulley to for my new VMP 2.65 Gen3R setup. Street tune will be on 93 octane and I do not feel like playing the Torco additive game. My current lower is a 4lbs Metco lower (I'd prefer to keep the lower but I am willing to install a different lower for the right combo). The fuel system will be a return style setup with two 485lph pumps with ID1300X injectors. If it matters the exhaust setup is Kooks 1 7/8" x 3" long tubes. Any help is greatly appreciated.

You seem to have enough fuel for e85. Not an option for you? As far as pulley selection, I think VMP has a boost vs pulley chart on their website. Not sure how many guys are running a gen3R on our cars yet.

I really want to run E85 but there simply is not any in my area. Big sad face but it is what it is. I looked for their chart but I can't seem to find it. Then again I have three brain injuries so I could be retarded and do not see it.

I think it's actually in the "ad" page for the 2.65. The one where you add it to your cart.

Click on the details section. It's in there.

Great catch! I ordered the kit from lethal and I checked the Gen3R Max Effort Kit page and they did not have that info there. It is weird they have that info on the standard Gen3R page and not the other.
I honestly did the same thing just now and knew they had it somewhere, so I kept looking. I had plans in place and semi day-dreamed and made plans of what I would do. That meant setting up the pulley combo I wanted to run. My fantasies of running a 2.65 are the only reason for me falling across that info....haha. Glad my anal nature could help....haha.
Please keep this thread updated with results and pulley combo and boost from said combo if you would be so kind. Thanks and enjoy that combo!!

I'm deciding if I want to run a 3.3 with my 4lbs lower or a 3.2 with my 4lbs lower.

I'm contemplating the same blower and I also have a 4lb currently. When is yours getting installed and tuned? Would love to hear your thoughts on this setup. I think its gonna make for a really fun car. I've heard the whine is loud and the torque is there!

I am waiting on my long tubes, x-pipe and catback to come in and then it is off to the shop. I just do not have time to install everything myself. So maybe a month or so. I'll try to remember to post numbers if I forget check my IG @connorjhamilton. I normally post my car stuff there first.
