Anyone ever tried one of these for a cog setup? It looks like it has not been out too long, but I was just wondering if anyone has used one yet? It looks like it my be helpful for those wanting to run a cog setup.

From an engineer's perspective, if the clutch design and the internals can handle the 100 HP load associated with driving a S/C belt, w/o failing after 1000 miles, then I like the idea. The S/C belt drive pulley "coasts" and allows the S/C to rotate at a higher speed than the engine when the throttle is closed - cool.
If I had a S/C (STS here), and the extra $500 I might do it.

I think that is an awesome idea!!! It would take the shock out of the belt I.e. not throwing it. $500!!!! thats why I've only got the .jpg and not the real thing... my god it's just a cool pulley....... not a PS3

Seems like that would be tantamount to dumping the clutch on the supercharger's drive system every time you floored it. Not sure what the benefit would be when there are better alternatives.
