what should a modded e55 boost?

I got ec pulley, ec mid headers, full 3" exhaust, no cats, tune, heat exchanger, belt wrap kit, tcu... What kind of boost should I see?

There is a chart floating around that shows what the calculated boost should be with each pulley combination, so you could start with that. However, you will see a boost loss with headers and a free-flowing exhaust, so the chart wouldn't be spot-on.

I have a 83mm eurocharged supercharger pulley and a stock crank, so what size is the stock crank?

Your ratio would be 1.85, so slightly lower than the 168/90 combo on that chart.ound the

I assume 90 is the stock sc pulley size? If so then the boost is correct I remember Jeremy saying something about 15.1 lbs of boost during our road tune

For stock crank + 83 upper? No way. According to that chart, it would theoretically be around 13lbs.

You do. I said your ratio would be close to the 168/90 combo.

168 lower/90 upper
It's been all over the board that I have a 185 crankshaft pulley. My question was is the stock supercharger pulley 90? If so then the chart is accurate.

Gotcha. You're post made it seem as if the OP should have 15lbs.
