That's about right. My S/C goes like 6-7. But it's hard to see when driving. When my girl was driving, I could see it better. But I saw the same PSI...

^ It's probably cold in your area. I think Kikcaffine said he was getting like 10psi but with his short ram intake during the colder months...

I think the 12psi pulley is really small... I don't know how much compared to the stock or even the 9.5 pulley, but I know it's obviously smaller. Did you buy it from someone here on SL? I don't think many people have that pulley...

Did you buy it on ebay? There was a guy there trying to sell one for a while. Which belt are you using? I really wouldnt continue bouncing around in 11psi territory unless your tuned man.

Default s/c pulley bolt

i want to upgrade to a 9.5 psi pulley but i don't have the tool to get the s/c pulley bolt off. does anyone know where to get it?

also, is there any additional tuning needed if you upgrade to the 9.5 psi pulley?

thanks

there is no tool for it. the only people that have it is TRD. and there not giving it out. i had to drind off the sides and throw on a wrench and took it off. there is no tuning need for the pulley. might need a different belt so it wont slip. i never change mine and its never slip. i do have a question, will any of these cause my boost to go up. Headers, exhaust, throttle body spacer. and can someone PM with the list i need to upgrade my engine to handle the 12 pounds of boost.

I belive the 9.5lb NST pulley is 65mm in diameter. Measure yours and if it's smaller than that then you have a 12lb pulley. As far as I know there are only 3 different boost pulleys availibe. The NST 9.5lb, NST 12lb, and the ZPI 9lb pulley.
