Default 12 psi pulley?

I was wondering who would be interested in purchasing a 11-12 psi pulley for the trd supercharger from me. Im looking for how much demand there is that way I know how many more I should make! Let me know!

Just something to think about...increasing boost to 12 PSI you may want to think about adding an intercooler and some bigger injectors and a way to tune it. Running boost up a few psi is usually ok but when you hit the 12 PSI range on that blower you are going to be in the upper end of its efficiency curve and are going to run higher intake air temperature. Only way to fix this is with a nice intercooler... Not to mention the injectors you have may not be able to handle that kind of fuel. Just somethings to think about.

Yes i understand the fact that you could use an intercooler to make it more effecient, but for now it would be fine, and TRD is coming out with an intercooler soon. Also there are a few people that already are making custom ones. As for the fuel you should be fine, and after a little while to really get the total potential out of that 12psi you should go with a programable fuel source.

Absolutely...a tuneable EMS could get you big numbers and depending on which one do some really nice things for you. Like I said though just some things to think about.

If you are smart you will wait for the big companies such as ZPI and NST to finish up R&D on big boost pulleys and go from there. These guys have dumped a lot of money into what they are currently offering to the market and if they thought the tC was ready to handle 12psi at this very moment they would have already released that stuff. The average tuner with a stock ECU can not currently use boost past 10psi.... just my two cents

Default Not really

No i dont drive a scion at all actually....I drive a 1988 BMW M3 with the swap from a 2003 M3 running oh about 333 334 stock wheel horse power.....and i almost forgot.....that supercharger.....it adds another 110 to what i have so let me really tell you the truth....443...there is a number you will only fathom about in that TC. So before you try and talk trash realize who your talking to and what about....

I dunno, looks like a lot of people are going to be going for a larger crank pulley over messing with that tamperproof cap.

ya, i would wait until a well known company such as NST or ZPI make a better pulley. NST already has a 9.5 psi s/c pulley out and plan on coming out with a overdrive crank pulley. i dont think a lot of people will buy a pulley from someone who just came up out of nowhere whose thinking about making pulley's.
