Question Which Radix Pulley Size?

Which pulley size should I go down to for the Radix kit?
I can pick up a 3.0 pulley for $50.00.
I don't even know what the Radix comes with factory.
Which smaller pulley do you guys recommend for everyday driving?
What is the smallest one available?

Thanks,

Jim

For daily driveing I would'nt go smaller than 3.0 if you go smaller then you're gonna raise you're IAT's then need a bigger heat exchanger and or meth I am runnin a 3.1 and I am wanting these things by the way I was wandering if magnacharger makes a bigger heat exchanger then the 7x24 that came with the kit? Others will chime in and let ya know what there thoughts are and what size they are runnin.

I think a 3.0 is the max i would go on a stock 6.0. Depending on if you have a lq9 or lq4, you could go a little lower but thats waht ill be running on my LQ9.

Magnacharger does make a bigger heat exchager thats made for a CTSv that ive heard will fit with minimal work.

I have the LQ9.
Is $50.00 a good price or about average?

Are the $50.00 ones made of aluminum? The one I can get for that price is made from 6061 T651 anodized aluminum.
Still about average?

Question

If it is still an average price, then who sells the 3.0" anodized aluminum pulley at this site?

Yeah it's a Nelson Pulley. So should I go with the 3.0 or 3.1 for everyday driving.
I sent you a PM by the way?
