The only downside to the 2.5" pulley setup is machining the snout of the S/C, and the ungodly amount of heat that it will produce pushing that much boost. Depends on how far you wanna go with it, but you're right, the guys at OTT definitely know their ****.
And I mean if you really DID wanna go turbo, the only thing you really need to worry about is the head...proven to be flawless up to 350hp, so if you're really worried about it, get new valves and stiffer springs, and that solves the problem..easier than a lot of people think.
I haven't followed much on the TVS since it came out...has anyone done anything crazy with it yet? We have one guy over at Redlineforums that ran a 13.1 or 13.0 in his RL with one, with the pulley that it came with on it, but I think that was with DRs as well, and his previous best with the m62 was a 13.2...
I never go on CSS.net anymore really, once I hit mid-13s in the 1/4 I stopped worrying about making it faster since it's my DD.
