Dreamer is absolutely right. It is not just about making peak boost but making efficient power. Ideally you want to make peak #'s at as minimum boost as possible. I honestly think if Dreamer had gone ahead and retuned the setup for long tube headers there might have been some gains. I have the F.I. Long Tube Headers on my naturally aspirated setup and they provide a big increase in torque throughout the powerband.

I was thinking about doing the cog set up but I think I am going to see what kind of boost I will get if I just increase the size of the pulley on the back side of the kit that's the pulley connecting directly to the blower pulley
On my mustang vortech setup just a 10% increase in the crank pulley jumped boost up from 12 to 14 on the top end but even better is boost was up all over the rpm range I am seeing 8psi at 4000rpms and 14 psi at 6500rpms on my Stang That's with a v2 vortech 928 impeller +. Water meth. And that pulley size increase a solid 13-14 psi on the top end could be possible I.e if you can keep belt slippage at a min. More boost on the top end more boost you see on the lower end Problem if they crack valve cam thing most of use would have to lower the boost on our cars less we want a new motor
