Yep because it has the breather on top of the can. I already had a basic catch can, so I added the metco breather. If you haven't bought anything yet just get the MM setup.

Lol...if it was NA yes. Not on 11psi with 93 octane. By the time you see knock and let out chances are it's game over.

. Remote tuning has a place and works well, but with these SBE LT1 you have to be paying attention. It's not something I would recommend for somebody that doesn't have a firm grasp on what they are doing.
For starters you never go out and make a full balls pull after a tune revision. Take it up to 5k rpm let out, look over data...then 6k..etc.
The reason why the setup came with a 3.7 pulley is so it makes boost earlier in the rpm range. Typically P1 setups don't start to make much boost with 4" pullies until above 4500rpm and even then it's only 2-3psi and builds to 7-8 by 62-6400rpm.
The previous owners car was likely only revving out to 6200rpm and making 8psi with the 3.7. I believe when Procharger rates pulleys on how much peak boost they makes, that claim is based around stock shift points or peak engine power made NA. Shifting the car clear out to 6800rpm is going to make another 2-3 psi as those P1 superchargers really start to ramp up above 6k rpm.
