Piston rings fried - stillen supercharger

My 9 psi pulley is 2.90". So if he dropped down to even 3.1 he should be good since that is roughly 2 psi.

Is that on the supercharger or the Jack shaft?

It is 1:1 from there at 3.2 to 3.2. So he could go 3.4 sc and it would be the same.

He doesn't have the 9 lb pulley, only the impeller and is getting 10psi. Do you still think that's the right Jack shaft pulley size?

Yes, he needs to go down 2 psi. So up sc by 0.20 or drop js by 0.20.

His kit was not stock and he had a lot of questions about how good his tuner was. The way Stillen sells it works great, it people that try to make more power that have trouble.

This is true. I've had second hand experience with both. Nick at soho Motorsports down here in Charlotte just start using it about a month ago and he loves it. Was with him the other day when he was tuning a 2014 nismo and it just seemed to go way more in depth. I'll be getting a new tune soon

Act your age. No one asked you what you thought of the kit bud.

Every kit has problems. including your GTM turbo manifolds that constantly crack and are made in china.
