It will help some! Just keep in mind your over spinning the blower after 8300rpm with that pulley if memory serves (8500rpm w/3") So if you rev beyond that, you are increasing ait/heat and wear on the blower bearings and your added boost returns will be diminishing. I'm curious what you put down on the dyno though. Keep us posted.

I'll be using 98 RON pump gas here in NZ too if that makes any difference.. Oh and I have the JDM spec higher compression motor.. Will that be dangerous?
It should be going in next week for tuning, I've just had the ACT PP fitted. Not bothered about breaking the blower, I'll get the 1200 when it dies.

- 98RON should be equivalent to 93 Octane state side.
- Higher Compression will yield you more power
- Jap AP2 2.0L VS USA's AP2 2.2L you will lose power.
So overall don't expect numbers to be much different than what you hear from us here in USA.

Thanks - i'm more worried about the boost the 2.8" pulley will provide for the JDM compression.
I fitted the 2.8 pulley yesterday and even at idle you could feel a large amount of air coming out of the recirc valve.. at 9000 that will be A LOT of air.. Had to use a big nut as a spacer as the pulley doesn't have a lip and would move around on the shaft.
I've taken the belt off until I get to the tuners.

So here’s the moment we’ve all been waiting for.. I’ll let the below speak for themselves (it’s in Kw @ the wheels)…

I’m happy with that result, I’ve asked him to take it up to 9000RPM
Not driven it yet as it’s still being road tuned. The only thing to note was the belt was stretching between runs (new belt) and the tensioner was slipping a bit (going to get a bolt to keep it steady) You can see from the boost curve though that it’s making boost to the end of the run @ 15psi peak. It was also making that power consistently which was good. It will be a handful for sure.
