The new LS3 will be going in very soon. I'm probably going to remove the wastegate setup (from my LS1 install) and go with a more traditional supercharger setup. The reason is the wastegate brings on the torque so fast that its hard to manage. Without the wastegate, torque will be lower in the lower rpm range and easier for me to hook. Which brings me to my question.
I've got a 2bar setup so want to limit boost to no more than about 14psi. 10-12 would be about perfect. The LS3 I'm installing made 750 with a D1 on 10psi. It can handle more pretty easily but since this is primarily a street car I don't need crazy HP numbers. My Novi 2200 will be used on the new motor. How much boost will the Novi make with a 3.6 pulley? I'm running an IW 10% OD balancer, all of it 8 rib. What is the formula or method to figure boost? I did some Google searches but didn't find any easy answers.

You'd be best calling whoever supplied your kit. Their experience of such kits across many engines and pulley combos will give you the best chance of getting it right

You could restrict the supercharger. Basically put a big a$$ washer inside the blower intake.

There are a lot of variables that dictate the amount of boost your engine sees: Engine size, induction system and camshaft profile among other things.
