ASP pulley for Powerdynes??
 

Ok, I read somewhere, it may have been on here, but I read where ASP makes a crank pulley for the Powerdynes. I have the most recent one, the BD-11A....the one that is "supposes" to handle 14 psi without burning up. They say that the pulley won't overspin the blower, so that would mean it would hold up....right? I am just wonderin if it would work or not....any opinions are wanted. Thanks Guys!

Is the model blower you have gear or belt driven...if its the new gear driven I would say go for it, but if its the belt model I would worry about snapping the belt. The best thing I could think of is to call powerdyne and ask, if anyone could tell you it should be them. Good luck!

I wouldn't mess with it. Getting a PD to run 14psi is like getting a 289ci to run 9's. It might do it a couple of times, but it is not going to live long. The bearings in the powerdyne are prone to wear and must be changed sometime in their lifetime. The powerdyne was never really designed to make a lot of boost. It is mainly a street blower. The old BD-10s used to have problems with the idler pulley seizing up and cutting the belt in half(been there). The new BD-11s have had the idler pulley removed and the belt shortened. They also lightened the internal components so they could get away without an idler. Bottom line, it is still the same old 6# blower with a new name, and I think 14 psi is unheard of in a belt driven blower. I believe the new X geardriven blower they make bolts right up to the existing bracketry and puts out a healthy 18psi. If you don't have the cash, about $2000 w/o the miscleaneous, you could go with an A-trim vortech. They're easily tailored for 10#'s of reliable boost. Any more and you need an s-Trim.
