Seeking opinions on Vortech setup...
Ok. So I have a 2005 6MT Sedan (revup). I've already paid for and bought a Vortech V-2 kit. The kit has a 928 Motorsports V+ upgraded impeller (928 Motorsports. Apparently, it flows around 15% more than the stock impeller (puts it at about the T-trim output level). What I'm trying to figure out is if I should run this kit with the included 2.62 pulley, or get a 2.87 pulley? The kit also comes with a 928 Motorsports boost limiter (limits max boost). If I were to install the limiter, I'd hit boost sooner and it would keep boost at a safe level...
So..... run the 2.62 with the limiter, or 2.87 without the limiter?
Oh, here are my other mods/what's in the kit:
32T cog
525 cc injectors
Walbro pump
Kinetix SSV
Megan resonated test pipes
Stillen TD Gen 2 exhaust
stock block...
Any input and opinions are greatly appreciated.

just read the thread that he made before he sold the kit. everyone of your questions has already been answered.
all in all run the 2.62 without the limiter. then run it on the dyno. you prolly wont make anywhere near enough torque to make you wanna take it off.

Working on the Utec.
I'm keeping the SSV. Too much "he said, he said" crap about power gains/losses. It looks nice. It sounds nice. It's staying.
And, what's wrong with the Megan test pipes?

Anyone else have any input?
just run it on the dyno, if you start seeing # over 450 hp, then back off. takes 30s to swap. i just dont think it will be that high.
