If nothing else, it would be nice for Vortech to list the sizes of the pulleys and the associated boost increments so we could order a pulley from them or have one custom made..... Vortech?

I've got two pulley units from Vortech I estimate one to be 0.8 bar(11psi) and one to be over 1 bar (~15psi). I have finally got all of the goodies I feel I need to put the 0.8 bar pulley on my kit and tune it.
Greddy emanage with tuning cable/software plus ignition, injector and pressure harness(for wideband o2)
test pipe with lake performance o2 stimulator
750cc injectors from ultimate racing with resistor box and fuel rail spacers
I am getting my S2000 out of storage this weekend, so tuning should start ASAP. I'll post more when I know more. Goal is 350rwhp on 93 octane.

You *will* encounter belt slip. Just forewarning you. There are other mods that need to be done in order to accommodate a pulley small enough to put out that kind of boost. 3.875" is about the smallest you can go without getting into that problem. As for the Greddy e-Manage, you will not be able to control the timing on our car. That system is designed to work with a distributor. It cannot control individual coils. This will be a very limiting factor. Couple that with the fact that the effective compression ratio of an 11:1 compression motor running 11psi of boost would be approx 19.25:1 you will blow your motor. It has less to do with the fuel and timing at that point and more to do with what the internals of the motor can handle. I wish you luck and am anxious to hear your results but hope you don't end up the worse for it.
