Ok you made my life a lot easier.You know, many people arent seeing 6.5 PSI and only 5PSI with the system, and with the catless headers that will go down, so Ill get myself a one size smaller, which as I understand is good for 1-2 more PSI's which should put me on track
Thanks again!

Well its not all about the temperature, its both the temperature and the excessive humidity thats a killer. Tonight, yes at night my car was reading 40 degrees C.
A little after noon the temps go as high as 48 C. With the humidity it feels like your in an oven, literally. There is NO wher eyou could go to escape the immense summer heat, shadows wont help either!
right, and with a blacked out Z, things get even worse!
Thanks again for your help, can't wait to get the blower and all the mods on the car, the parts should be here soon

OK the one size smaller pulley after 4.5" is the 3.8" , yet the next smaller size is 3.6" what's with the discrepancy? Still Vortech claims that each smaller size pulley will contribute to 1-2 PSIG of additional boost.

BTW, since you have not started your install, I would DEFINITELY upgrade to an 8 rib setup, a 6 rib is too small for a car that turns 7000 rpm
