Might put some torque managment back in.I have heard,but not sure about this, if you completely remvove it,everything will show fine on the dyno, but when you put it on the street you can run into some driveability issues.Only on s/c set ups have I heard this but could be total BS.wouldnt hurt to try though.

What is your timing at? Since I have installed the blower I cannot have more than 11 degress when at the track. On the street it has 26 degress. I cannot figure it out and everyone I have talked to can't.
I feel your pain. I have a 600 horsepower truck that will not go faster than a 8.2 in the 1/8th. Although my timing problem starts at the starting line.

500rwhp + 20% drivetrain loss = 600hp
If ATI will ever send the frigging pulley . I will finish installing the juice and go get it dynoed again. I might be close to 600rwhp. That would be sweet on a stock bottom end.

3.75in, it is not alot smaller but it will be a small improvement. I am going to try a different belt pulley combo. I have had belt problems ever since the 4.00in pulley. It should give me another 2psi.
