    How are the street manners? Can you drive around town?

    It's a little crazy on the street so I don't drive it much.

    55k is the maximum suggested by Paxton, you can probably push it a little harder.

    crank cog / blower cog X (step up ratio) X desired maximum RPM = impeller speed

    so say you had a 73 tooth crank cog / 31 tooth blower cog x 3.54 (internal gear step up ratio) x engine rpm (6500) = 54184

    77 / 31 x 3.54 x 6500 = 57153

    Not sure what pullies you have there but that's how you figure it out. There is a spreadsheet somewhere on here attached to a post you can download that lets you manipulate the numbers quicker. You need Excel though to view it.

    That is very cool - I was admiring your idler setup. Is that the way Paxton sells the 50mm cog idler setup? Do they even make one? It looks like a Vortech 50mm kit - is it?

    Pretty awesome!
