need help choosing pulley size!!!

Hi guys,
I'm trying to figure out wich pulley size to go with just like the post says.
What i have is a 02 hawk m6 all boltons and 38lb injectors with a p1sc on it. The problem is i'm going to be putting in a g5x-3 cam and i'm trying to get an idea of how much boost i'm going to lose due to the cam so i can choose the right pulley.The only reason why i'm asking is i'mtrying to get in on the sdce group purchase for the 8 rib setup before it's over. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks,
Adam

Y in gods name would u want to run a G5X3 cam with a blower. I would go with a blower cam not an N/A cam.
I dont think there is a way to figure out how much boost you are going to loose but it is going to be a lot. What kinda of boost do you want to see.
