Who knows someone may in-fact be able to run the 185MM pulley with this product without a single problem who knows?

185mm CP + 65.8mm SCP = around 205.5mm CP along, still within the SC limit, but not sure if fuel is another problem.

Haha, okay - I was thinking "that's insane..." - guess I somehow misinterpreted your quote:

Be careful tightening the supercharger pulley bolt! It's a hollow bolt and will give in fairly easily. I was snugging mine tonight before I put the torque wrench on it and twisted the head right off.

Off I go tomorrow to find a solid replacement.

It is probably hollow, to prevent excessive torque from being applied to the clutch assembly during assembly.

you are correct...had that happen to me as the bolt wouldnt move when trying to get it out. Had to break it, and drill/tap a new one.

How does this intake mod you offer measure up to the Needwings intake i was thinking about fitting that to a C32 seems the gains with that are huge.

it takes close to 1 mile to circle one run including 1/4 mile outgoing + several hundreds feet of runoff, 1/4 mile back trip + this and that..
so yeah, 34 miles probably is about 30+ runs.

Yep, I got it... initially I thought the quote "The car with the SC Pulley had 34 miles worth of 1/4 mile runs today" was stating the overall distance of RUNS, not all the extraneous stuff too, by the way it was worded. Don't get me wrong, I thought it sounded improbable - you'd have to be averaging 4 minute runs (13 seconds out, 3:47 to get back 'til next launch) for 9 hours straight, which would be insane... but at a private track event, depending on turnout... who knows...

OT: is that a SOLO cup in your sig?

Pulley Update

I have updated another thread on this and NO I do NOT want to sell mine (Code III) . It'll be run in conjunction with the LET Pulley that I am looking at. My concern with the LET pulley is still this: Are there ANY issues with "overdriving" the accessories??? This has been addressed BUT are there any definitive answers on this issue??

As far as belt wear, NOW that I've run it over two weeks, the belt seems fine, BUT I still caution those of you installing the Code III to let it "burn" in if you will to allow the belt and pulley a chance to get acquainted. I guess the newer pulleys (I am ever the pioneer) are less aggressive.

If you are talking about in conjunction to the code3 sc I can't tell you for sure..

But, with only the 185 by itself, I and many others have been running it for some time without any issues.

Did you re gap your plugs? How do you know how much to shim it so the belt does shred?

Happy tire shopping

Thanks

Boost gauge

I installed a boost gauge today. I am seeing 16 lbs of boost at WOT at 6000 rpm. I have now got around 800 miles on my pulley with no problems.
