You mean for your S/C'er??? Yes most def. I wouldn't run more than 10psi on the stock unit from I hear they won't last too long!

The max boost you can run on your stock blower is right around 14-15lbs. I say max because after that, the Eaton becomes like a heater. So with that in mind, you can run a 2.8 upper pulley and that will put you right at the max boost level I mentioned. You can also run a 2.93 upper and a 2lb lower and get the same thing. With the second combo, your torque numbers could be a tad higher. Until you port your blower, I wouldn't go any more than this.
Keep in mind that with the 2.8, its gonna get a lil hot under the hood. So you deffinetly need to open up your vents to let the heat escape. Also, you might wanna consider two important cooling mods... a heat exchanger and a head cooling mod.

RE: plly size=more HP
Only have one thing to add...
You can run approx 14-15psi with just the 2.81... more then that is really pushing overspinning the stock eaton, however if you have the supercharger ported (approx $500-700), they say the best combo is a 2.93+4lb lower.. which makes 16psi approx.

A guy I knew had a white cobra and the belt was slipping but he was doing 550-600 at the wheels then he blew it with nitrous...
Can you really get 16psi with it ported? If i remember correctly my friend god 14 or 15

You can also run 16PSI on an unported Eaton but it's a bad idea. And there are people who do it with upper and lower pulley combos. But simply put, an unported Eaton will just get too hot at that PSI level.

I think it'd be a better idea to just start off with just an intake and exhaust.You'll see some nice power gains from the both of them. But that's just to start off. Then DEFINITELY pulley it.
