you'd have to take off the gears, they will have a number on them, if it says 62502, its teh NA cam, if it says 62502-T2, they are boost cams

I wouldnt worry about it , If the stg2 cams are there leave them , if you have stock leave them , either way go enjoy your boost

N/A cams typically make better power on supercharged cars. Leave them in either way. If I were you I'd be hoping that they're the N/A grinds.

You can get an overdrive pulley. That with the BBK pulley will put you at about 12psi. Any more than that and you'll be pushing too much heat to make any more hp, unless you have an after cooler.

You're right. Running an aftercooler on a JRSC is near impossible....sure you could fab something but it would take A LOT of effort and money.
