I'm gonna sidetrack this thread for a sec (sorry TOT) I saw your sig on your upcoming installs and I saw you're planning to go to a 2.6" pulley. Are you planning on running meth or anything to control the IAT's? Also what are your plans for dealing with belt slippage? I'm just curious...
EDIT: and of course, if im having too much problems I will just go back to the 2.8" until I get meth/8 rib setup. Also, by "Pending Install" i mean that the kit is ready to install now but I would like to get it cammed etc like our friend Justin did here and do it all in 1 shot. Though, looking at it sit on my work bench is getting harder and harder.

Its tuned! Were only seeing about 4-4.5lbs below 4500rpms and 5-5.5 to 6K. looking to upgrade pulleys asap to eclipse the 500hp goal overall the car is an animal, first and second gear is pretty useless but to let it lug down in the 1200RPM range and you would never know there was a cam in it.
As you can see from the first pull there was alot to be desired from the base tune. Vid to come shortly!

haha I try to preach that long and often! ive already mentioned it BUT 500 is the only goal he has and he likes his exhaust and the blower whine so its a win win 8PSI should put him right on target.

I hear ya on the turbo part but everyone has there own ideas on what they want. Ill put $100 on it making 500 with this setup 
wanna go?
Sometimes turbos arent what ppl want. Take a look at how just about every new 2010 camaro you see is getting the TVS! Theres about 100 ways to get to a goal and at the end of the day theres only one person that has to be happy about it
