Default Time to crank the boost up on the procharger.

Well its come time to crank the boost to the max of my current fuel and blower capacity. Right not I'm running the procharger p600b, its hard to measure the current pulley with the bolt still on it but its either a 3.2 or a 3.4 and im seeing about 8psi on the car right now, when I bought the blower it came with two other pulleys and they are a 2.5 or 2.6 and a 2.8. Thoughts on boost levels and power levels with those two pulleys.

I really don't know honestly, the step up rate on the p600b is low, I'm probably gonna have to call ATI.

Procharger said it will pump another 7psi woth that pulley and put me at about 15psi total and the blower still in safe operating range.

hmm, good luck. I was running about 12 psi through a NPI with a p600b and thought I was running a pretty small pulley. I wanna say in the 3.0 range.

Im curious to see how it does for you. I would think you could see 15 psi but isnt that overspinning the hell out of that blower?

weird, I swear I was almost overspinning mine...I dont think the p600bs have that high of a max rpm?

Maybe im mistaken.

But f it, if it blows upgrade it

Mine blew a few times and I was tired of ripping belts so I went to vortech lol
