so should i just buy a powerpipe? or would the pipe and pulley be too much, and how is it that the pipe creates more boost? cause its just so much less restricting?

less restriction on the inlet side of the blower. If your lookin for just 10# I'd keep the pulley on there and get a powerpipe - same boost as the pullied setup with less strain / rpm's on the blower = same boost with less heat = more power.

yea maybe ill invest in a smaller pulley after id but the aftercooler so it will transfer the heat out and just make that much more power, as you can see power pipe has been on my list for some time. but the steeda one looks nicer than the anderson one so do they perform equally as well. also the steeda is 50$ cheaper. do you have one md or did you put one on with the blower?
