Why did you go with the 2300 over the 1900? I would think the 1900 would be better for your setup given DD and low boost

Ok. 14 psi is low boost and Rob's 1900 is doing serious work on his ride. Thinking ahead in case I want to mild my setup for fulltime DD status. Wanted to get your input.

Robs setup is also maxed out with a 2.7 pulley.... A bigger blower will generate less heat, as you know, heat is bad... Besides it was only a $500 upgrade to get the 2300 vs 1900... Seems like a no brainer to me....

Do you guys with these types of blowers have to worry about knocking the water pump pulley off when switching to 8-rib?

Weld that bitch now if so.
