I have been running my 10/71 littlefield without a chiller for 2 summers now. I purchased a chiller and I'm having the hatch worked now so everything will clear.
How much boost do I need to add to make up for the restriction in the chiller? I was running 4-5lbs. I'm thinking 8lbs total should be safe????

It should make the same power with the chiller and current pulleys, although boost pressures will drop. The cooled intake charge is denser. You will be able to run more boost now due to the added chiller that reduces the detonation risk and increase power. I would think 7-8 would be safe based on running 4-5 w/o the chiller.
