    I wouldnt make any change unless your on the edge now. I mean why would you up the blower and then handicap it back with fuel?

    According to my notes a 10% increase in OD can be somewhere between a max of 3 and 4 lbs of boost change in a good blower and maybe 2 to 3 lbs of a not so good blower. For safety I would assume the possible max and compute the fuel needed by .28 GPM for each lb of boost increase expected. So 1.12 GPM (assuming the highest at 4 lbs of boost increase) is a good safety margin until you read the actual amount of boost change then you can bring the GPM down to match the actual blower boost gain.
