what size injectors are you using at 8-9 boost and what about your fuel issues at 8-9 boost.

If your directing your question to me I am running 60lb Mototrons with a Magnavolt fuel pump booster and methanol injection, although I was fine with the Radix supplied 43lb injectors and Meth.
Keep in mind that as you increase boost your going to kill your transmission pretty quick.

Amen. The boys at FLT love small pullys. More HP = job security for the tranny shops.

Yes, I know. I already got a FLT level 5 and a yank sc300 planned for October. Just got my caltracs on so all I will need is some slicks and a right foot!!!

Good choices. You'll lve the transmission, really. I run a SC2800, sometimes I wish I had the 3000.

I currently make 4.5-5lbs of boost with the 3.33 pulley that came stock with the kit. Like trever said boost is a measure of resistance, since I have long tubes, high flow cats and a magnaflow muffler I have less resistance, so its no suprise I dont make the 5lbs the kit is supposto make stock. I have ordered a 3.0 pulley in hopes of 7.5-8lbs of boost.

Thanks for the info guys you made it all a little clearer to me. I didn't realize the bolt -ons affected boost so much.
