I have the 9 lb pulley, but it hasn't been installed yet. I want to get my head done first.

Get your head done and you won't need a nine pound pulley.

I have an extra 11 psi pulley, and I've been running 11 psi for over a year.


I would recommend against going with 11 psi. Running that high boost you will just encounter alot of problems like I have. Broken intake retainers, broken differential, and having to replace the clutch.


Stick with stock boost, or you will be a very unhappy camper.

I'm always looking for more. I'll be sure to post my numbers after the head's done though, so we can compare.

Jason, tried sending you a PM, but it says your PM box is full. Lemme know when you've got that resolved.

I'd recommend to do the head work first or in combination with the 9 psi pulley. And you might was well do a Hondata gasket while you have it all apart.
You read my mind.

would i need to upgrade the injectors???
I would as I like to run stock pressure anyways.

And just so you know with 9 psi I'm using the 685cc injectors and I'm at about 80% duty cycle on stock pressure (i.e. no FMU). That's without the head work. You might want 720cc for a little more room to handle a little more added fuel for the head work.

sounds like a killer
how "small" is your supercharger pulley? Can we have some more info on your setup?
