Standard boost is around 8psi, and since boost is controlled by the size of the crank pulley, no a controller is not a usefull idea...

as kinx had already mentioned you cannot use a boost controller on a s/charger. as boost in run by a belt and a bigger crank pulley. so if u want more boost you'l need a biiger crank pulley.

hope that helps

Belt slip? Do you hear a squealing noise at all when you go over 4 or 5000rpm?

yea your tentioner on your idler pulley and soem belt grip will help, but dont tighten it too much otherwise you'l snap the belt or cause damage to your idler pulley, water pump and a/c pulleys. juts tighten it like half turn then take i for a spin if not tighten it again.
