just spoke to Heath over at MPI.....got some good info on the pulleys.

that chart is an old chart he told me,which went with the original belts. Now MPI has tougher belts which are sized alittle different,so the pulleys are alittle diff too.

for the stage 1 blower....pulley combos/sea level.

27/22 - approx 14lbs boost
27/23 - approx 12lbs boost(typical stage 1 kit@240HP sealevel)
26/23 - approx 10.5 lbs boost

Dan, I'm glad you got this thread going. I'm seriously thinking of boosting my 06 GT soon. Probably an SC with 5psi. I don't need it for formal racing, just trail work. I too am concerned about fuel economy to a point. Getting 16MPG has been a good thing. My 136x1.5 track ought to hook well with all that torque.

OOOh Yeah I forgot to add also dan, Anti Ratchet drivers, cause without you will skip the drivers in a heart beat. If you can find them the skidoo 9 tooths are great. Or avids, or wahls. Just more to add onto the list!!

Ain't Boost fun!!!
