I don't get full boost until around 4500-4750, which is kind-of close to shift time.

I see they dont offer a 6 RIB pulley larger than 6", which is what mine is atm. Can I use a 8 Rib 7" crank pulley, or do I have to be 8 rib belted?

A little info on your mods and car would be helpful. Is your boost gauge bouncing?

you can run an 8 rib crank pulley with a 6 inch setup, belt will just sit on the ribs that line up.

Why go with a 8 rib crank pulley if you dont use the 8 rib belt? That may just cause belt slippage on the blower pulley. Just go 8 rib all the way and be done with it.
