If your worried about a boost leak, make a leak tester. All you need is a short silicone coupler that fits over the inlet of the supercharger, 2 hose clamps, a PVC cap that fits snug inside the coupler, and a threaded schrader valve (available at any auto parts store).
Like this only bigger

pressurize the system to 10-20 psi. then spray your couplers, intercooler, intake etc. with soapy water. look for bubbles

Appreciate it guys. Yeah I’m starting to subscribe to need a smaller pulley if need extra boost. I don’t think I have a leak. There plenty extra power to be had with boost I’m at so not complaining but just trying to check all the boxes off.

My D1x has 13 psi on a 4.88 pulley stock balancer stage 2 , not ho, but I'm a gen 2 motor, 11:1 compression . Gen 3 motor is 12.0 compression so you see less boost at that compression ratio. If your using the pulley that came with the kit its a 4.88 diameter pulley not 4.0. With the 4.88 pulley your right at the boost level you should be at with that motor..

I’m 6 rib not 8. Not using piggy back setup. Running off factory 6 rib balancer, it’s a tuner kit from Beefcake so it’s not same as stage 2

6 rib set up then you probably have belt slip .. there’s no belt slip with Stage2 set up..
