If you're thinking of going with a smaller pulley, you should do a search here first. With a stock motor, decreasing the pulley size is probably not a good idea. If you want a little more power, there are better alternatives (i.e. Gotham 265).

AFAIK, thomas didn't have any issues with the RLS pulley and RLS IC. But to be on the safe side you should have the car tuned with the smaller pulley.

Roof looks sick though. Can't wait to see it installed! (as is the case for everyone else on this thread. )
Thanks Smoky....

Excellent choice! It probably costs less than the "exclusive paint" option...

which cloaking device did you get? I got the klingon one on order, I heard it's better than romulan device. I've seen the federation version where you can pass through objects, but I ain't into that sort of stuff.
