I like the idea (here's the shot of the stock and ultra grip side-by-side)


...but my is - what about after some time of use - will those little cut-out areas in the pulley eventually wear out your belt??

Those little cut outs are a great idea. When you start spinning the blower faster, air gets trapped between the pulley and belt causing the belt to lift and slip.
Besides, it looks cool

Those slits look like they cut all the way through, no way for air to get trapped there, air would just escape through there i'd assume.

Exactly, I just worded it wrong. When compared to our factory style aftermarket pulleys, its a huge improvement.

Next time, I'll try not to post buzzed........nawwwwwww

He has already noticed a faster spool up time


Gee funny how I started a million fights TRYING to convince everyone of that. People fought me tooth to nail on that
"and still don't believe me".

2 upper + 4 Lower = faster boost than 6 lower
Not more boost
FASTER BOOST
Less throttle = more boost

I'm actually still not convinced all that extra low throttle Boost and heat is good for me, thats why I'm currently running 4lbs only. With both on, I was constantly at 10-15 lbs of boost,
"even @1/8-1/4 Throttle".

As for those cuts, I'd also have to say it will eventually destroy the Belt, but it's a Beautiful Pulley and if it helps slippage (mine slips) it's probably well worth a new belt every year or so.

I'll give it a thumbs up

You would have to hold this pulley in your hand to see it. The
pulley is smooth with no Burs so I don't think it will be hard on
the belt. My truck is a daily driver so I will have some feed back soon.

pulleys cost me $125.00 each shiped
I got I stock 2.93
1.5 boost 2.85
