I got 10psi on a 3.4" and 7 psi on a cold day stock...so it sounds like the blower isn't that bad after all...guess I might have to look into this Cobra-esque porting job...get a WOT vid though.

Velocity decreases but overall airflow increases with a port job like that. Without outlet cfm/ air temp testing, we really wont know which is better.
I may consider doing something similar as i will be going twincharged and dont really care about velocity as much as overall airflow of the blower, since i will be pressurizing the inlet.
Driving around it got 7psi. Max. I'm wondering what would happen if the pulley were a size or 2 smaller. Idk if I would do that. Btr to go back to the stock blower.
I'll pass on your eleventy billion RWHP & instead switch M90s.
is it a good idea to have a aftermarket boost gauge and is there a how to on installation? just curious
yes it is a good idea as the stock one is useless and not accurate. The install depends on which type/style of gauge that you get. You can get mechanical boost/vac gauges that hook into the motor bay, and you can get an electronic(aeroforce for example) that ties into the OBDII and you just hook it up to that and a power source. I would get one aeroforce gauge first because it can do so many things. I think there are more important things to monitor than actual boost though(oil pressure, knock retard, trans/engine temp,) if you are ever going to get a custom tune a wideband O2 is a must have.
Thats because your don't have the supporting NOS sticker.
although i like my 99 steering wheel better :) i hate the 01+ steering wheels ick lol
