What boost to run? Just picked up a 2001 WS6 T/A with the mods listed as follows-
K&N High Induction System, SLP 90mm MAF, SLP Bellows, MTI 75mm Throttle Body (ported & polished, fuel heater bypassed), SLP Headers Long Tube, SLP Exhaust Y-Pipe,Trans-Go Shift Kit (4L60E), Borla Exhaust System, Power Exhaust Cutout, BK Performance Transmission Cooler, SLP Springs/retainers/guides, Motive 3.42 gears,American Racing 17" Torque Thrust D Rims (9.5" front, 11" Rear), Mickey Thompson ET Street Drags 315/35/17, slotted & cross-drilled rotors, Hawk Brake Pads, Random Technologies Torque Arm, SLP Trailing Arms/pan hard rod/sub-frame connectors/strut tower/manual fan switch/Draw-Tight Hitch Assembly, MSD Spark Plug Wires, NGK Spark plugs, Vigilante 3200 Stall Torque Converter, SLP Line Lock, MTI High Wall Tension Pulley, 7.5in TA Stud Girdle, Optima Heavy-Duty Battery, ECU custom programmed by MTI to Match Aftermarket Parts
My plans are to put a ATI Procharger on it and eventually a moser 12 bolt. I want to put on the LSX Fast intake but was wondering if its really worth the money and if I should opt for the 78mm instead of the 90/90 setup being that I already have a aftermarket t/b on it? ($$$) Also I keep hearing that the stock internals will take 8psi no problem with the D-1SC. I was gonna get the P-1SC and put on 5psi, maybe 7psi max being that I want a reliable cruiser and not trying to break any records or my car for that matter. If the engine go's in the future though it would be nice to have the D-1SC on it to build a serious boosted motor??? I thank all the gurus in advance!

Go with the D-1SC, and 8 psi of boost. That is how we set them up, and with a good tune you won't have any problems. I'd install an LS6 intake instead. This 740 rwhp C5 has the LS6 intake, stock maf and stock throttle body.
