lol first thank you. i agree tho and looking at the install and reviewing the carfax. only two owners, never crashed, and regular maintenance. plus the install is clean. except for the hid kit i removed. im going to check what i can tomorrow. like the tstat and plugs.if those are 180 and ap104 or equivalent ill lean towards it was tuned well. if its the other way around....all my money

Just don't beat on it and hit it hard off the line after first shifts than hit it but as long as you go easy it will be fine. The only real way to find out what is has is to bring it to a tuner or if some one you know can get into the PCM and see what the afr timing etc.... are

^Do not "hit it" after it shifts into second, you can chunk a piston in any gear. Stay off heavy throttle until you get it scanned for KR.

^agree do not "hit it" until you know it's safe and you are monitoring the vitals you need to monitor

Not trying to be rude here, but I'd really hope the OP would notice the car was cammed, especially with a cam as nasty as the NIC.

Just a suggestion, why not run a 3.4 pulley? I think you would be okay with what you have on it. There is a good chance the heads/supercharger are ported as well. What spark plugs did it have?

yeah im currently looking for a 3.4
one guy on here pm me about one but i was out of town for a bit. im going to get a scan gauge before i buy anything else tho. working off napa pay can be challenging lmao
so far i have been okay. ive never "hit it" lol
it has 104's for plugs and a 180 tstat
it really feels like the guy before me was working and got bored then sold it.
the uim has been replaced with the upgraded design. im unsure of the lower.
thanks everyone for the suggestions. i have a much better idea of what to do now
