Does anyone have first hand experience? Which one is better? What's the best buy for the money?

Is there a huge or significant drop between the 178 and 181? From what ur saying I think I want to go with the 178 from the reliability standpoint and the fact that I can't put in the mods needed for the 181 right away.

The difference in boost and therefore performance is not that significant. The car is already very fast with the OEM setup. It is hard to give advice in this case. I feel that if you are going to mod a supercharged car, cooling improvements are a must. Even with the OEM pulley. So, if you are going to mod the car, figure out what you are after and start buying parts in the right sequence. Have you considered a 65mm SC pulley? Much easier to replace and if needed, restore to OEM setup. You would still need the tune and cooling mods.

If you see a 181mm or a 185mm or a 65mm SC or a 61mm SC pulley in your future, then yes, start by getting a larger Heat Exchanger and consider separating your cooling system. EC used to offer SC pulleys but I don't see them right now. Maybe contact them and inquire or look for a used unit.
