With some extra money at the end of the summer I decided to start modin the RL again. Finally some performance parts that had been in the works for a long while.

Here�s after getting the parts all together:

MattStang5's 2004 Saturn ION

Similar to GM stage 2 parts list, with just a bit more balls and emphasis on future hp/mod-ability.

Setup includes:

ZZP Modular Pulley System with 2.9" pulley
ZZP Pulley Puller
Pulley Boys oversized idler bracket
GMPP Stage 2 supercharger belt
Sieman Deka flow-matched 60 lb. injectors
Casper's LSJ fuel Injector wire harness
Running Horsepower Tuners software package

Install wasn�t to bad:

Supercharger coming off:

New Hub going on
Modular setup so I can chose which pulley to run without going through this process ever again :)

All back together and at New Era Performance for dyno runs and tuning via HPT

Put down 250 WHP & 220 TQ
Good numbers for a 90 degree day with 40% humidity

Like a raped ape over stock.
Fun ride back from Rochester, stopped at the lake for a pic:
