what have you done exhaust wise...
otherwise i think your pretty safe now, you would have to scan for KR after you get it on other than that you would be ok...
where you out of?
dont know what forums your on but there on crack.....lol

im from alberta, canada
from my experience, a 3.4 will be too much boost unless tuned out by overfueling it. i did a build a while back for a member that used a 3.2 pulley, with ssic, rockers and headers, and 3.2 was perfect. different setup, but same senario. i would imagine that you should start with a 3.6 (just get a mps) and work your way onto headers/rockers to drop to the 3.4. like 1_quick said, a 3.2 on a gen3 is like a 3.4 on a gen5.
remember, on a gen3 car it takes two of the following to run a 3.2 without being too rich-intercooler/rockers/headers/cam.
also, you shouldnt mod for pulley sizes. you should mod for boost levels. start with keeping it at 12psi and see what happens. if you can run more, then do it

i agree, this is the safest way to go about doing this....if your going to have the ability to scan, you might as well use it

I don't know what school you went to, but apparently they're on crack--LoL
Id rather be safe then sorry. You can only push then engines to a certain point. Id do the 3.5 first and then go big with and IC, Cam, Rockers, Headers to go to smaller sizes from there.
Back in the day when I had my TOGS, IC and 3.0, the car(99gtp) was amazingly fast. Add on top of that the Shitense race trans with 3.29 gearing and the higher TC, well, was awsome! I really do miss it but got tired of the whole scanning crap all the time when the weather changed.

I think you just voided it!!!!
headers wont void it but they will start to look for other things, like your pulley, so becarful!

an 04+? if so, im sure it is running pig rich.

I though intake and exhaust work did not count? I swear ive read a bunch of articles from K&N and muffler companies in a lawsuit about this issue.

no it doesnt count for those things, i asked the forman at the GM dealer coupla days ago here, i asked him about installing headers, exhaust and intake he said no, nothin like that voids it unless we can prove that wat ever problem occured is due to those mods

that foreman is wrong. ANY modification to the engine, will void the warranty like that. think about it. if the motor blows, you have headers. you added horsepower, we know it didnt cause it, but if gm came down to inspect the problem, and saw it was mod'd, they would kick the claim, and the dealer would be in trouble. so thats why most places wont even work on them if they are modded
FWIW I would not put a 3.4 with only those mods. 3.5 at the most! I have all the mods you have minus exhaust and still get some kr with a 3.6 pulley. I run stock pcm but even when i had DHP KR was about the same. Yeah you probably can get away with running a 3.4 but I dont think its in your best interest.
