elijah Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 I have a side mount whipple on my 2003, punched it today and noticed I only got 6 lbs of boost. What could be the possible problems? I have a 3 1/2 inch pulley if I'm not mistaken, shouldn't I be pushing more then that?? If anyone can chime in I would appreciate it.

JC03SS Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 From what I've read that's about right. You would have to pulley way down to make more boost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay cool so all I would have to do is buy a smaller pulley or have one made? I thought something was wrong with the supercharger itself. That's a relief.

Do you have the single belt or 2 belt system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaze_v8 Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 Nice to see you finally got it all hooked up. Post pics of your setup! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elijah Posted September 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2015 (edited) Nice to see you finally got it all hooked up. Post pics of your setup! It's still the same set up bro, I haven't modified it yet still getting parts. But now I see that my tensioner is kinda loose and it's leaking oil somewhere...so that's another thing I have to troubleshoot.

Link2603 Posted October 2, 2015 Report Share Posted October 2, 2015 I use to have a 2 belt whipple. If my memory serves me right I had south florida pulley make me a pulley for it. I think it was around $140. You send them your pulley and they can make any size pulley you want based off of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
