The standard pulley set is good for 9psi. The high boost pulley set goes up to 13 psi I believe. I don't really see the point of going beyond the standard pulley...it was plenty of power unless you want to start getting ridiculous with your aero and tires. At 9psi it was enough where I could never really drive the car in the rain because it was spin city past 4-5k rpm at anything over 60% throttle. When I ran e85 with the standard pulley, I could break the tires (225/45 summers) loose in 3rd gear at ~5000rpm on a dry day. It's not a clutch dump... I mean accelerating from say 45mph to 90mph, the tires would break loose when the boost really started kicking in. It was ridiculously fun and probably quite dangerous if you aren't expecting it.
