New Member and ZL1 Owner in desperate need of upgrades help

How is it going y'all??

As it says in the topic,, new member and new ZL1 owner however, a huge and old fan of this forum for over 2 years.

I bought a new ZL1 about 7 months ago and been stock since then except recently I installed a borla attack catback + a tune. Car made 431 stock and after the Catback and tune it made 475 rwhp (All on a Mustang Dyno). I am looking to do more than that right now since the car has 10200 miles on it. I have already ordered Kooks 1-7/8 LT headers and catless mids along with a Roto-fab intake from Maryland Speed but still haven't installed it yet.

I want to upgrade the supercharger pulley first but I have no idea where to start from since I have never dealt with forced induction motors. In the past I used to work on LSxx N/A motors but that's it. Currently own a LS3 GTO and loving every part of it.

What I am looking at right now is the 2.35 Lingenfilter pulley package with the belt and injectors. I was told I will need the injectors but I also heard and read different opinions. Trust me before posting this thread I read a lot!!! but no solid answer unfortunately.

so here are my questions...

1. What will I need in terms of parts to upgrade to a 2.35 pulley? (UD pulley is gonna remain stock).

2. How many pounds will I be running with this setup (approximately) and what should I be expecting on the dyno for rw hp and tq? ( I will be tuning it on a Dynojet not mustang)

3. Belt slip,, I have heard a lot about that!!! what's your opinion on this? I will have the new belt btw from LF when I order my pulley kit but does it still slip even with the new belt designed for the 2.35?

4. Will I need new injectors or is it all talk? cause some said I will some said otherwise...

5. Fuel pump...upgrade or no?

6. Anything else I forgot please mention it...


That's all what I have in mind,,, Thanks in advance to you all
