Questions about Supercharger

I know that there is the thread on the JRSC but i have specific questions and don't want to keep thread jacking. I plan on purchasing the kit in January / early Feb. Now my questions are as of right now i have Injen CAI / Vibrant RH and getting an Apexi WS2 exhuast and NST pulleys soon. Now my question is what do you all think i would get on the stock 10psi on the JRSC kit?

Next question. I'm new to superchargers and reading up on them and all, but what will i need and if someone could post me a link to where i could buy a 3in pulley? I want to upgrade the pulley along with upgraded fuel rail and probably fuel pump. Will i need a piggy back with upgrading the pulley or should i be fine on the reflash? Just trying to see if i should upgrade the pulley when im doing the install or after depending on how much work extra stuff is needed.

Any help is appreciated THANKS.

If you upgrade the fuel pump,rail, and add return lines, then you will most likely need to add a piggyback controller. Or you hard wire in a standalone/piggy back like 07CivicMD did. I don't think using your NST pulley's is a good idea either. I ready something awhile back, and I believe on their website, that you should not use them. I do believe they have an upgrade/alternate pulley setup though that is designed for our cars running a SC.

I know with the CT setup some, not all, were having trouble with their CAI and bogging. I personally use an X-intake, but my IAT suck. Working on a custom CAI setup right now.

I read about the problem with bogging. I can get a SRI if thats the prob.
I'm thinking about getting the piggy back no mater what anyways, but it will depend on money come then how much extras i can purchase. New job = goodies I pmed the guys at NST about the pulleys. Still waiting on a response.

Anyone know where i can find the 3in pulley and such? I emailed Jackson racing about it, still waiting on an email back from them also.

i was thinking about FIC, but my tuner always said emanage is better. I just havent contacted him yet. Trying to research more so i dont look like a tool calling him lol. I might call inline pro and see what they have to say considering how experienced they are with k series. I think they have done supercharged k's, my tuner idk bout.
