would i need anything to stop the pulley from moving if i use a impact gun? to remove stock and install new, after its kinda tight ill use a torque wrench.
or is there any tricks to do it, i have 2 sets of instructions so i can have my teacher help me, but i dont wanna *** anything up.

yeah thats what the instructions say 134ft lbs even though the programs at school say 132 +/- 4 ftlbs. ill just put it on the highest setting and a few quick zips n i hope it'll come off...

if you have an extension on the gun, take it off. you lose torque over the extension.
hahaha... i love it. revs fast. still picks up and goes fine up a slight grade to 100mph in 4th with 3 people in the car reasonably quick. give me some time. i want to get a vid of the speedo. i have to wait for my sister to get back so i can use her camera.
so under a really unthorough review, thumbs up 3 people in the car and we all say we felt a difference. driving to Socal for the last SCLC meet, these guys have felt what my car did before with all of us in the car. driving by myself, way better throttle response, less throttle for the same cruising mph, etc etc. everything everyone has heard so far. for $100, this is probably one of the cheapest bang for the buck mods out there.
also, if i didn't lose some splash guard plastic clip thingies and tried to look for them, job could be done in about 1.5-2.0 hours with two people if you haven't done it before. it's a cakewalk.
