One really cool feature is the over 30% in weight reduction !! Stock SC puley is 3.5 lbs and this is only 2.5 lbs!! This is huge for getting up to power quicker and lowering streess on your SC components! This super SC pulley will put you equall to a 170mm pulley. (stock is 155).
This is how a "prototype build" thread is supposed to look!!
..... announce a product idea, then follow it up with some specs..... then show a photo of the product..... then give more specs and release the product a few weeks later so people can actually BUY it!!! 
So, with your explanation above where:
Stock lower pulley 155mm + new SC pulley = 170mm lower pulley + stock 90mm SC pulley
Am I correct to calculate that the new design is 82mm??
And for extra credit:
If those two combinations give identical SC RPMs through the rev range, will they have identical IATs also? Or will the advantage of the smaller SC pulley (both in diameter and rotating mass) allow for cooler air by putting less drag on the motor???
Awesome. Simply Awesome.

so to run this new pulley would it be mandatory to use the belt wrap kit as well? I'm in for one please pm with pricing details

With the right ported heads,,,, he will be way loooooooooow in the 10`sss too.
Update S/C pulley has been fit tested , inspected and is in testing as Shardul said. All is good there. Weight has been reduced a full ONE pound! Again, this SC pulley will be like adding 12-14 mm to your crank pulley. Just sayin.
Holiday`s, things slow down as we all know but still pushing testing and making sure everything is great. S/C pulley is going on my car too and can`t wait.
As many of you have seen, the stock factory SC pulley can have spring breakage (the small flat plates between pulley and clutch plate), So we have been playing around with this small part to get the right rockwall hardness for best durability and function. Want to improve upon the factory quality and not just rush something out , because we all want it TODAY. Laser Cutting a few more spring samples out this week to test spring rate and rockwall hardness for production.

The real information is available at **************...
I wouldn't expect to learn much about the new projects from the "Houston Crew" on this site anymore. Way too much moderator involvement, deletion of posts and infraction points being dolled out these days.
My guess is that they'll just keep providing the "tech" on the other forums and people who feel like seeing cool new product development will need to spend more time over there instead.
