Default Smaller Pulley vs Stall

I'm debating on going with a 3.1 pulley for my Radix or 3000TT, any advice?

How could you compare a $800 stall, and a much cheaper pully? Dont have $ for both?

Go with the stall, it will help the most. Better have some DRs or Slicks though.

Stall = new tires= alot more money. How will a stall affect launch on a AWD? Yeah I was thinking smaller pulley cuz it's cheap HP ($100 for 40 horses) and saving up some bread for a rebuilt tranny.

Stall's going to help your hole shot a ton...also help w/ shift extension on the 1-2 shift bridging the gap between the WIDE 1st and 2nd gears.

I'd do stall just for it's drivability, the performance comes along with it.

With AWD, you could get a 3000 stall, and spray a 100 shot out of the hole and get very little tire spin. AWD, you can keep your stock tires with a stall. Just watch for that whiplash.HAHAHA

the awd trucks will still spin if you have a higher stall in them.

If you have enough power and stall, yes you will get wheel spin with AWD...not a lot but some and torque steer too.

If won't effect (or is it affect?) your AWD adversely anymore than the blower did you installed. Instead of launching at a low 1800-2000rpm, you'll be at least around 3000rpm to 3500rpm (dependant on input torque and weight)

Is there any mods I can do to reduce Torque Steer?
