ah, allright you got it. lol, thats almost exactly like the pictures that Vampire posted up for me when i didnt get it. Just have it hooked up like that and youll get mechanically controlled boost, where boost is added as soon as the engine runs out of pulling power. More direct and linear boost depending on load and throttle power.

Tempting........................................

Hmm come to think... I wonder if this was what caused your boost spike. Since you came into those turn maybe the motor tried shifting.

maybe, but i think its from the lack of LSD. One wheel tries to lift or goes faster than the other cause of the turn, and it causes sudden on/off grip/slip situations acusing a close/open of the boost bypass. oh well... i love it!

Going by seat of my pants (no boost gage), full boost was about;

Stock Pulley: 3800 RPM

2.9" pulley (5.5psi): 3400 RPM

There was boost below that point in the torque curve, but still felt like a V6. Above that point, felt like a small V8.
