After swapping to the 3.12 pulley, I got 346 whp and 246trq on the Phastek dyno. Still on the stock clutch, the supercharger is more forgiving on the drivetrain than the turbo!

300whp with a turbo/SC on e85 with proper tuning is very easy to hit. Anything above 350-400whp+ the turbo starts to become the better FI route IMO
