I think it's cool what he's trying to do, but it's not looking so good for a track setup, save perhaps the dragstrip. Not a whole lot of people doing that on this side of the pond though....I applaud the effort, but something tells me this isn't going to have a happy ending.

Really be interesting when some folks start running some of the smaller pulleys.

I was going to comment on all the gauges in the thread--something to the effect that with all those gauges there, good thing it's not going to the track, you'd never be able to find the apex. Maybe Mynes will make him a periscope? Thought better of it though, didn't want another war.

as I had told the guys in the UK last Dec that the temps spike exponentially when the ambient climbs and the bearings will not handle it as these blowers being sold are economy blowers NOT race type blowers. First heat wave in the Uk in awhile on the track day weekend and the blower had 2,000 miles on it of hard use with the small pulley and full bearing seizure.........

Think it's very telling that he's already looking at an oil cooler for the SC oil...

Honestly guys, ya just wouldn't believe how hot that thing was getting on Ian's car at the UTCC last year. No one is exaggerating.

the best is when people who haven't tested it in the weather we have nor have they pushed it as hard sit there and argue with you.......then say you don't know what you are doing........ it's like a monkey on the organ grinder
