8#, very little time will be dropped. More added heat, which isnt good. Juice it man BTW, Nitrous isnt cheating. Its the best bang horsepower wise... plus, you will be cooling your intake charge.. something we can benefit from. The only people who claim nitrous is cheating are the guys who arent runnng it. Run what you brung brother.

I would go with 4 5 or 6lb pulley, and a 75 hose shot.

I am running 6 lb and i like it a lot. Even if you drive it hard, and everyday, you can still run a 6lb and nitrus (75) on the stock bottom end without hurting it.

8 lber with either a LFP or JDM ic cooler and a pair of ic fans...The EATON does make more heat but it can be managed...Remember way back when people thought that the Eaton was maxed out with just a 2lber? If your looking at 1/4 mile performance this setup will work...

JL has proven to make boost with up to an 11 pd pulley on a stock eaton. it may not be a huge gain, but it does drop your et.
