after doing some research, I'm going to agree that you have to go with a small pulley to make power. Trying to be in the efficiency range is of course the goal, but if you are still trying to go faster, you obviously need more air. While the efficiency make take a dive, the power output is still going to be there. You just got to make sure you are taken care of in all the other departments, like iat's, fuel, tuning.
example, in the dsm world, people went 11's this year on the stock 1g turbo, 14b. They were pushing in excess of 20psi. That is obviously way beyond the efficiency of that turbo. Also, they went 10's this year on just a evo III 16g turbo. Pushing just shy of 30psi. I know boost isn't what did it, but it was the amount of air they were able to push through that engine. While those turbos were way out of efficiency range, they were still pushing alot more air through the engine than say, 15-18psi.
So, I still believe I have done the right thing by going my cooling mods route. And I think I will stay on the 2.9 pulley for now until I can afford bigger injectors. But I am also going to add the killer chiller to my mods to drop my IAT's even more in preparation for throwing on a smaller pulley and making sure my IAT's don't sky rocket, which I don't believe they will anytime soon.

ever see those videos about a chatroom in real life? that would be awesome to do with ss.net members
And back to a previous topic, if a roots blower is so bad, then why is it people are making over 300whp on a 80mm pulley at ~18psi and the twinscrew wasn't touching 300. Hmm
Another thing with twin screws is that the tollerances have to be more exact and they are prone to locking up. Eatons are indestructable.
show me a car with m62 on it, at a lonely 18 make 300whp and i'll show you a bull **** dyno.
i've been to that land before, i've made 300whp on this car out of an eaton, i'm well versed in what it takes....
a simple car at 18psi isnt doing it.
twin screws made more power, they just dident prove to be worth the large cost associated with them.
what pipe are you smoking?
