larger pulley to slow down the impellers. This in turn would ram less air into
the intake and possibly not upset the fine balance of the fuel ratios or
computer pulses of the injectors. This of course would not give all the
horsepower that some people want, but when you have ONLY a factory stock
engine that doesn't have the "GO-FAST" internal goodies anyway, all you're
asking for is trouble and a lot of headaches when the SC kits don't have
what's needed >>

The S-trim kits I sell are capable of upwards of 650hp efficiently, so they
are plenty capable for our Dodge trucks.

You can most certainly change the pulleys on just about any blower. The pulley
that comes with the S-trim kit is 3.125", and that equates to only around
~5lbs of boost on a stock engine, so a larger pulley really isn't essential...
Just MO.
