Default ati pulleys and stock motor

Since I'm going to get a procharger soon, and don't have money to get a nice bottom end yet, what pulley size should I be running to be fairly safe? I'll be getting the tuner kit with the d1 and the 8lb pulley, but I was also thinking of getting the 5lb one to use for setup and until I felt comfortable with the whole deal. So this will be stock everything motor-wise, except for a pair of headers shortly after. Some of the other posts on CR have me concerned about 8psi. And since it's a sc, I can keep the boost down by not revving quite to 6k also, right? TIA

If you go beyond the 4.10" pulley, you MUST be extra careful with the tuning and fuel delivery... that means another pump, larger injectors and some cutom programming, carefully dialed in. Good luck!
