The problem with swapping the 9psi pulley and upgrading to the bigger impeller is heat. The more boost you make the more heat is produced since compressing air creates heat. The water system simply can not reduce this increase in heat effectively enough to keep the piston rings in tact. Yes, you can run this setup and beat on it, but for how long? Any motor that had a stillen kit on it that was pushing the kit past stillens recommended ratings (8psi) has seen premature or total ring failure.

With the air to air system you are not only buying more power, but longevity to your motor as we can see exactly what temps are reaching the internals..and they are safe. Not to mention the Tial setup safeguards the supercharger also.
