Definitely good to know. Reason I ask is because I want to do bolt ons until I pay the car off and want to have the majority of the mods compatible with the supercharged setup 👍

Skip a ported upper (replaced by the Stillen manifold), but a ported lower (I went Z1), decent headers (I still have stock exhaust manifolds), test pipes (or good high flow cats) (I went Z1 test pipes) and a solid catback (I went with Borla for the sound) would be good mods for both NA and boosted. Again, TBs are a relative unknown, so if someone wants to chime in about gains from the 70mm TBs over stock, please do!

Hold off on fuel mods and things like that since you'll have everything apart anyways for the build and its convenient to knock those out with the SC build.

Well, crap. Been doing WOT pulls and making 5-6 PSI on my first WOT. Did second log, then popped hood to inspect for belt slip (I do have tbatt kit but not installed). Quickly see a problem—first belt casualty. Does that look normal or do you think the pulley migrated causing the snap? Perhaps that rectangular locking key was forgotten to be installed? And if so and i can’t find it is that anything i can come up with?
Will plan to replace belt and inspect perhaps change to tbatt kit on wed or thurs when i get time off and wire ethanol content to ECU

Did the bolt come out of your sc pulley?

Either that, or never installed. Now that i’m ordering a belt (and i think i found the part i need 8-Rib Vortech Drive Pulley Retainer Assembly 8-Rib Vortech Drive Pulley Retainer Assembly [V8R101-002] - $10.99 : SuperchargersOnline, Worlds largest Supercharger Resource. Get Serious About Power ) i’m very tempted to just go to the 9lb pulley, is this what i want? http://www.superchargersonline.com/i...oducts_id=6830 And also, what again was the 7 rib 2.85” pulley for again? Still have that sitting around.
Time to review my tbatt kit parts

Here is the 9lb pulley that you want, it goes on the serpentine side.

https://conceptzperformance.com/stil...13_p_19055.php

The 2.85 pulley is an upgraded pulley for the sc. Also, if you install the 2.85 sc pulley you'll need to install a 3.00" idler pulley to take up belt slack.

Z1 shows 7whp/7wtq on the EPS 70mm set, but that's NA
