Has anyone with a Whipple 3.3L tracked their car? If so, what are the pluses and minuses, if any (i.e. too unmanageable etc.)? Also,what would be the best pulley size (psi) for best all around results on a typical road course?

You will have enough trouble getting the power down to the track, even with Hoosiers, in stock tune or tuned and pulley.

I just don't see how the extra power can be used.

i would run 16 psi. anymore than that and you are gonna have your hands full on a short track road course. also heat soak could be a BIG problem with more boost than that. on a long course road course such as the silver state classic i would run 19 psi. either way i would run 100 octane unleaded gas to resist any heat soaked detonation.
