Question Maggy Questions

Does 4-5 Pounds Of Boost Sound About Right For A Stock Pulley On A 112 Radix? If I Wanted To Add A Little More Boost,whats The Next Size Pulley?what Else Would I Have Too Do Besides Retune?

yeah, 5lbs is about right. How are you measuring boost, from a gage? You just got it on and already want more boost? lmao, you are in trouble, boost addict! What size pulley do you have now, a 3.4"? I found the drop to 3.2" to be very satisfying.
You might want to think about methanol if you are going to go into the 7-9lbs range.

that's right, you have the 4.8...i was thinking 5.3 for some reason You got the 43lb injectors with your kit (right?) you should be good to go. Do you have a local tuner?

nelson used to have diffrent pulleys and retune while there for more power...i went from stock pulley to 3.1 pulley that netted me 8 psi on a 5.3 so you will prolly end up with a 3.2 pulley...
