how to max out a p1sc
#3
A 3.4 pulley on the head unit can result in belt slippage due to a lack of belt wrap. I'd use a 3.55 pulley and have a one inch larger oversize crank pulley made for it. Bob

Wow, most people with the f body bracket system end up with belt slippage going with anything smaller than a 3.55 pulley. Something doesn't sound right with your set-up, a 3.0 pulley should make a lot more than 9 psi unless your cam has a lot of overlap, or you live up at a very high elevation. Bob

That should do it. Back in the day I had a D-1SC and with the stock 6.0 six rib crank pulley and a 4.0 head unit pulley the car made 7 psi of boost. Swapped out the crank pulley to the MMS crank pulley and the boost went up to 15 psi. Bob

You need to spin it pretty good to max it out... I think max is like 62k RPM for the P1.
BTW, I have an MMS crank pulley for sale... $150 shipped...

...and a 3.2" 6-rib blower pulley for $40 shipped :

I just upgraded to an 8-rib setup.

I'd check everything out. You can cap off the intercooler tubing at the throttle body, and at the blower, and pressurize the system by installing a schrader valve into one cap. Last year we had a new ProCharger GTO intercooler that was leaking boost at a missed weld, it happens. Bob
