procharger & pulleys

[saleen970]

Is anyone using a Procharger & a underdrive pulley system? I have saleen pulleys & have a Procharger on the way, I am wondering if the S/C pulley will mount to the balancer from Saleen.

with prochargers inset crank pulley it's been found a aftermarket ud pulley doesn't fit.

If you have a standard saleen pulley, I have seen numerous saleen owners with prochargers and I have not heard they had issues with the pulleys at all. That could be good for your application.

Thanks for the info, worse case saleen will sell take off pullys for $19

Believe me, you don't want to try underdrive pulleys, besides the Procharger piggyback pulley only mounts to the OEM pulley.

Believe me, you don't want to try underdrive pulleys, The little gain from them is not noticable compared to the boost.

Isn't the concept of UD pullies are to slow assories down? I'd think the last thing you want to slow down is a s/c pulley.


Slow the alternator down, causes slow battery charge, in turn causes a load on alternator causes strain on moter, eats horsepower,.......

The Procharger pulley mounts to the front of the crank pulley so it wouldnt make a difference.

I ordered a set of stock pulleys just in case. S/C should have been shipped today

The idea of underdrive pullies is to slow down the accessories causing a few hp to free up. When used collectively like with CAI, tune, lightweight driveshaft, etc.. collectively the mods give a little extra power. Going with a blower is a whole different animal where it's gains far outweigh the concept of freeing up a little extra hp, not to say you wouldn't notice a gain on a dyno graph.
