I wasn't trying to be rude. When u swap pulleys you are changing belt size as well, this determines how fast the engine is spinning the SC, how can a you regulate that without changing pulleys and belts? Again not trying to be a smart***. I really don't know how to.

On the some 6-71 supercharger manifolds for V8's. There is a pop-off plate on the manifold. It's held in place by two springs. These springs regulate boost pressure in the maniflod. To change the boost setting. You have to change the springs to a different weighted springs. Should say that this is not a boost controller per-say. It's the last line of protection before the motor eats it's self for lunch. But I know of some people who use it as a controller. Instead of changing pulleys. They adjust spring tension. Stupid.

What torque can we expect out of this? Better than a single SC setup?

Wow...kind of happy I didn't pull the trigger on FI just yet. Looks like the table is still being set with options.
