I should have a an exact weight reduction by using the new Super S/C pulley. Should be at least 30% or more of rotational mass removed!! That means less load on the engine and about 2 times less on the Supercharger! Rev up should be quick/crisp, boost will come kick in lower and quicker.

Any future plans to experiment with adding 4matic to one of these 55's to put down all that extra power without having to DD with drag radials?... i would love to see a AWD w211 e55
My assumptions:
90mm S/C "stock" pulley (need to confirm)
180mm Crank pulley
My calcs:
Pulley ratio = 2.00:1
Max S/C RPM @ 6500RPM engine speed = 13,000RPM
A 186mm lower pulley would have a ratio of 2.07:1 and a S/C max of 13,433RPM
A 188mm lower pulley would have a ratio of 2.09:1 and a S/C max of 13,578RPM
If the smaller S/C pulley has a similar effect as the 186-188mm lower pulley, then the overall pulley ratio should be in that 2.07-2:09 range even when using the 180mm crank pulley...... by my calculations, an 86.5mm S/C pulley & 180mm crank pulley nets out to 2.08:1 ratio. Right in the middle of those other pulley combinations.
It seems that a 3mm reduction in the upper pulley nets the same improvements as a 6mm increase in the crank pulley, which if you think about it makes sense. There's a 2:1 ratio difference in those pulley sizes, so changes in the smaller pulley should be more dramatic.
One of the experts can chime in here.... I may be completely off-base with my thinking and numbers.

plus the older c5 rs6 had very expensive DRC issues that made airmatic failure look cheapif the newer 2008-2010 RS6 v10 TT came to north america i would have been looking at it since they are running around 6sec 60-130mph on moderately tuned versions pushing 800+ awhp... but as usual europe gets the cooler cars and it didnt make it here

AWD has its advantages when HP gets high... drifting is fun for a parking lot but not when trying to out accelerate another car



Man, I hope someone gets this s/c pulley made!




some traction ala gt-r/gallardo would be nice
