I bought my stang off a guy who already had a supercharger on it and i have done the rest of the mods. The supercharger only pushes 4-5 lbs boost and it looks like the pulley is part of the s/c and cant be removed. Its an old paxton oil self contained unit. I was wondering can i change the crank pulley to a smaller pulley for more boost or am i better off buyin a whole new set up and purchase a Procharger. If i do this though wont i have to move my battery and other things. Let me know your opinions and what to do thanks.

Sell it and get an updated unit, JMO. You would have to relocate the battery for a Procharger but it is a self contained unit.

and your crank pulley would have to be larger... not smaller, for more boost.

With these series blowers the best bet is to leave them alone and plan your combo around then or replace them and go wild. Mine has a little over 120k miles and puts out 6-7psi running synthetic tranny fluid and a bypass valve to keep it healthy. A pulley swap will burn them up and they can't flow the air to make huge boost / power. I'm pushing @ 450hp out the crank and that's enough for my daily driver.
