Anyone used and had any experience with the new Reichard Racing ultra grip blower pullies? And how much are they? I really want to try the pulley out and see how much of a difference there is if any.

I am using one of the Reichard pullies on the blue car and am very satisfied with it. Plus his customer service is fantastic.

Excellent! Care to elaberate a little more about the ultra grip pulley. Any gains, and what do they retail for. Reichard doesn't post their prices on their site and I haven't gotten around to calling them. THanks
I would like to know the price of these pulleys.
Well Reichard is been using them on the Swill Racing renegade car and claimed to have picke up 3mph in the 1/4! Prices anyone!!!!
You need to call Reichard for pricing. He has recently changed to a CNC production process that may help him to reduce product costs.
BK Meyers
Yeah if he's CNC machining, you would imagine that would cut costs. I've been meaning to call them, just never enough time in the day. Are you racing WFC6?
Does anyone know the price of these pulleys?
im interested in the price as well... i do have his timing pointer and must say the quality is excellent

Here is a post about this a while back. They are not cheap thats for sure.
200 bucks is high but, if it does what it claims to do it would be worth it. Plus remember he has to pay for a new CNC machine.Quote:

If I remember correctly the $200.00 price was before the installation of the CNC equipment. That is why I recommended that those interested simply call Reichard and ask, but it's apparently easier to type snide remarks about paying for equipment than it is to pick up the phone.

I think you took what I said totally out of context. I am a Tool and Die maker/machinist. I totally understand cost of parts and machinery. Being in this field for 35 years and being involved in CNC lathe, mill and wire machines I understand the cost if parts and why they cost what they do. What is said is a fact, not a snide remark. So please no petty arguements, ok.Quote:

Well a 2.95 8 rib pulley is $150. So they still are not cheap.
I run the Reichard ultra-grip 3.40 pulley and absolutely LOVE IT! I just recently switched from the Vortech 3.60 pulley that I've run for the last 3+ years. Big difference is all I can say. You hit boost much sooner and NO signs of belt wear AT ALL.
Hope that helps your decision.
