Stick with no smaller than the 3.33" pulley & you should be okay.
ALso do the Hobbs Switch mod...your fuel pump is always on. Get an oil cooler to keep the blower bearings cool & take care of minor details... Synthetic oil changes, warm up a little before driving, let it cool off before shutting the car off, always watch the EGT gauge, 93 Octane fuel, etc, etc...

True, but you can't really expect to be trouble free with most major mods like a supercharger or nitrous. You bound to run into a problem or two.
After you fix the problem though, you'll realize it's well worth it.

I was under the impression that only turbo needed to be cool down before turning off?

should be attached with WIRES to your fuel pump.
leave OFF the vacuum hose that goes into the top of it. and then just either change your 5-to-1 vacuum adapter to a 4-to-1 or just tie the vacuum hose off rEALLY good.

I wish I could, but school starts again for me next week. I'm going to meet up with him tomorrow, so probably last time I'll see him. It's sad, first you, now Matt.
