The simple answer to your question is no.


The complete answer is, a boost controller works on a turbo system by bleeding off presure from the wastegate. For instance if you have a 5psi spring in your waste gate when 5psi builds in your manifold a vacuum line sends that pressure to your wastegate and it opens, causing exaust gas to be routed around the turbo and the turbo to stop spooling up. A boost controller will bleed some of that pressure off and so it will take maybe 9psi(or what ever you set your BC for) before your spring will open. On the type of supercharger the s2000 runs boost is directly related to rpm. SO the ONLY way to build more boost is a smaller pulley.
