haha its ok. I measured my pulley and it looks to be just barley under 3.5 inches, so how much boost do you guys estimate me running? And if i were to get a 2.87 pulley would that be too much for my car? And since it would be a smaller pulley will the belt still fit right?

do you have a power pipe? stock crank pulley?

When I was i/c, had a power pipe, stock crank pulley, 3.12 pulley I was seeing about 13psi, so maybe if you want to stay around 10 psi with a i/c look into a 3.33

Yeah I have a power pipe and stock crank pulley. So u think with a 3.33 ill c 10lbs? This maybe a dumb question but do I need to get a smaller belt for a smaller pulley? Or can I tighten the belt?

I think that would put you in the 10-11psi range, and you could always try the belt you have, but a good chance you will need .5-1" smaller

I've always had good luck with Gates, and believe it or not always find them 50-60% cheaper on Amazon

I used gates belts on all my blowers, I have no complaints on them. As 97stanger said amazon has then cheap, that's where I always pick mine up from as well.
