Default Turn up Boost?

Does anyone know if you can turn up the boost on a stock charger on the G60 Corrado. I dont see a wastegate actuator to put a boost controller so I wasnt sure if there was a different place to turn it up since its a supercharger and not a turbo.

now keep in mind its never as easy as just turning up the boost, with more boost you need. more fuel (injectors, FPR) and management (SNS chip) as well as a healthy charger. if your charger hasnt been rebuilt in awhile i probably wouldnt mess with the pulley till u get it rebuilt.

thanks man, the charger was rebuilt before I bought the car and I had it checked by a VW Tech and was told its in great condition. I figured it had to do with the pulleys but wasn't sure. Im actually shooting for the screw compressor charger in the long run or a turbo swap. I know you have done the turbo swap so any info on that (mostly the up sides and down side to the swap opposed to the charger) would be appreciated.

Sorry another question how much boost can the stock injectors handle and what size are they, also is it a must for a chip to run at higher boost cause if so then ill wait til i get a chip to get smaller pulleys.
