you should heat wrap your s/c pulley, friction=heat which causes boost loss

Well I was gonna put an AEM sticker on the pulley.. the additional rotational mass of the sticker should give me 30 lbs more boost



Oh yeah.. I'm taking the S/C off.. but whatever I replace it with will certainly be heat wrapped

better make sure you evenly distribute stickers on it, don't want the lopsided weight to throw off your rotational mass spinage

I have since cleaned out the engine bay and waxed under thur, so it looks better now, but not bad when I took the pic either.
