Is my truck in danger ???

I have a 6# pulley with other mods (PSP custom tune).
Is my engine in danger ???
Should I change to an 4#er ?
What if I change supercharger, will it increase the life of my truck ???

What else can I do ?
Please help

So are you saying that it's safe?
I don't drive the truck very much (not daily driver), only when it's nice outside/weekends.

Sal tuned mine, but not on a dyno, should I have it retuned?

I perfer dyno tunes...

However, I sent my chip to Sal, he retuned it, I put it back in and went to a local dyno, did 3 pulls, got the files and sent them to him.

He said it was fine to drive out to NYC (from michigan) for the dyno tune. SO a few weeks later I drove out to NYC.

I made 3 pull son the dyno and the tune has been great thus far. I only have a street tune, as I don't go to the track that often (twice/year)
Just with all the mods, I didn't want to take the chance of anything happening, so I wanted Sal to tune my truck on his dyno.
I'm a little paranoid.


Here ya go.
