Heath,
At what RPM does the guy with the 370 see 10 psi?? What is he putting down for RWHP??? I really dont care how much boost i see if i get the rwhp i want...... I am really debating on going with the 3.4" pulley because i see all of you getting no slip and if i go to small i might see slip.
Kyle

he just go it all together and took it for a test spin today. no numbers yet. but the shop guy that works on his car runs a very aggressive cam, long tube combo with a 150 shot and he said his car has never felt anywhere close to as fast as the blower car felt today.

Do you guys think with a 3.4 8 rib pulley with the SD set up will see 14-15psi? I will be shifting at 6800rpm....hmmm.
Need more info on these set ups.

he actually has the 3.7 pulley for now. I have the 3.4. Once he does some more dialing in he will jump down to the 3.2. The dude is a madman and wants 9's on his daily driver.

I guess in the name of science this weekend after I slap the new crankpulley and the 8 rib belt on I will have to take it to 6,000 rpm and tell you how much boost I see. Remember I have a P1 so I hear the rule of thumb is you D1 guys can add 1-2psi on top of my numbers. Although..... I don't have intercoolers so the numbers may be fairly accurate even though I have the P1.

Yes J shifting that high you would see 14psi easy IMO. Probably more, that shift point would put you 2k shy of max impeller speed.

I will ask. I do know they built the motor with plans to only spin to 6200.

So I will assume he only took it up to 6k but I will ask for you.

Thanks Heath.... means alot.....

Jer, I talked to them right after you called. I still need to talk to Scott about what size blower pulley..... When Heath lets me know what RPM his friend was spinning to then that will tell me alot.... because im like you i plan to spin to 65-6700 rpm's. Right now it looks like the 3.7" or the 3.4" Whats it look like for you. they told me you 1 day aired your bracket...... did you send in the stock one or steel one??? I forgot wich one you told me you were going to send in. Awsome customer service......
I hope to have the bracket back by mid next week..... Did you guys get the tensioner tool also?? I did....

Kyle I told them that I was hitting 9-11psi with the 3.4 pulley for reference, but they are still up in the air to which pulley I will be getting. It will probably be in the 3.4-3.7 like you state up above, I am sure I will see 14-15psi anything extra will be gravy.
I sent the steel one, my aluminum bracket was too warped to send it off.
I also got the adjustment tool.....and a case of s/c oil.....dang, I hate saleswomen, I can never tell them no lol
I hope to have mine soon too, I have to race this biatch again I have it bad now.

Jeremy so you went with the 6 rib??

My car could possibly hit the dyno tonight......

I would maybe like to try out the SD concepts 8 rib stuff.....I want to see 15psi though, and I don't want to be the first one to attempt it as usual.......maybe SD can let me "experiment" with it
