    Default AEM CAI and an Agency Power lightweight crank pulley?

    would the combo of an AEM CAI and an Agency Power lightweight crank pulley require anything additional in the way of engine tuning?

    i'm not really sure how the crank pulley affects the other aspects of the engine other than better throttle response due to less rotational mass...

    LW pullies do only one thing, like you said, remove rotational mass. The gain is actually recovery of energy spent by the engine to do work. It does not alter air/fuel flow nor ignition timing. A CAI/SRI does alter air flow across the MAF which in turn is compensated for by the ECM. If the intake is built properly, the ECM compensation (learns) will be within range as measured in grams/sec. Altering the MAF location or the size of the piping ID will have the measurement out of the range of the ECM's set open and closed fuel trims, as well as, the learned curves.

    Short answer; no tuning or additional equipment is needed to install either of these performance products.

    1/2" drive torque wrench and impact. I believe it is a 19mm socket. You will need a shallow 19mm socket on a flat bar to take the tension off the serpentine belt idler pulley.
