3" pulley? As in 3.000"? What boost are you running?! 15psi? That's some serious boost for a stock 6.2 and no meth.

What all do you have done to it already? If you can post up a picture of your engine bay, you have the Whipple with the whipple intercooler right? The reason he thought your boost would be higher is because if you have a On Manifold Whipple, with a 3.0" pulley on a stock 6.2 your boost should be higher.

3.625 pulley equals about 5.5 to6 pounds on 6.2 for each smaller increments of .125 equals about a pound so 3" pulley works out to be about 5 pounds more
