4000cfm, but boost will be much less than I was running before. Most likely going to have to use N20 to clean up the smoke now. Going this route allows me to get rid of around 250+lbs of plumbing, piping, ice/water, intake and misc turbo weight. 130+lbs boost is hard on everything ��. If it doesn't work out as planed, I'll compound it.., and if it still doesn't.., I'll go back to triples.

I wonder if anyone has ever considered running a compressor with a cvt drive? Essentially the same set up you would find on any modern side by side only revers the shives. ...or is that what the Supercharger Store set up does?

Probably gonna be some sort of happy medium. Eventually, the overdrive would be to inefficient.

You tell me , I'm only doing it for weight savings, and try something new haha. Not being compounded it might end up a turd, what do you think Brad?

i see BLOWN SMOKE from Canada has ditched the roots in favor of a centrifugal charger. but he has been very quiet on social media as of late. Don't know much other than a few pics.

I really hope your combination works for you.

Should work just fine. Response is by far better. You might have to compound it or spray the **** out of it!

We have spoke on the phone about his plan. Should be a beast to say the least.

How did it work on the green s-10, I saw a vid of a pass that looked stout.
