Let us know if the belt ever jumps!..Are you doing anything to cool down the charge air, like watrer/alcohol injection??. The charge air at 10psi in an eaton roots blower is going to be pretty hot!, you might feel more of a difference with a cooler charge.BTW, congratulations!..very cool mod.

i do have water/meth injection. the pully only produces 1 psi over stock, in my case its 10 psi, larry put his on and is getting 8 psi but he smokes me regardless, he has less backpressure from headder/midpipe in turn less boost pressure.

Instead, he says that the trick is to get the most air thru the motor. I know that my down pipe is 2.5". When I upgraded my exhaust completely to 2.5" (although I still have stock cat )...my turbo spools quicker, and I can feel the power diff.

Careful, don't run lean.. The result will be similar to Greenfire.By the way, where did you get the pulley and how much did it cost?How do you get the water or methanoyl injection system, and how to install?

first 1 psi is not significant enough to create a lean condition, trd put enough fule in to the programming of the s/c computer that i bet i could add 2 more psi before id have to worry about running lean, besides i have a air fule ratio guage, and yes it is not a wideband but under full throttle operation, the guage has never waverd out of the rich range. the water/meth injection kit i have is from snowperformance.net it is their stage 1 kit, i upgraded it by plumbing in the windshieldwasher resevoire and my custom tank which can be seen here. http://matrixowners.com/module...44d9f the kit is easey to install, i have some skills but anyone could do it. oh yah , the pulley was 100 bucks shipped, off hand i dont remember where i orderd it, but tomorrow ill find the invoice and post the number.
