You'll need to buy a chip and pully that are matched to be honest, if you nake the mistake of fitting just a smaller pully then you'll run rather lean on boost and result in warming you inards until they start fighting for space(pistons will eventually sieze in your block) leaving you with an expensive repair bill.

you shouldn't run lean. the stock ecu still uses the map sensor to increase fuelling enough, you just wont be getting the best out of it.  I had a 65mm pulley and stock chip in my g40 for a while.  But yes you are definitely best off doing both at once.

I can do you a chip, and a 65mm toothed or multi v belt conversion kit.
