8 rib vs 10 rib

If you're going to the trouble of having a bunch of custom pullies/balancer cut, then why not go with a cogged setup? Or at least a dedicated one for just the blower. That would reduce side loading on the other parts, and it'd have no belt slip.

Shipped the ATI balancer back today. I kept the rest of the ATI 10 rib setup per the advice of IW. It is going to be cheaper and faster for them to just cut me a new 10 rib balancer instead of the whole pulley set.

I won't have a cutout on the new setup. I'm trying to make it quiet. I have a pair of 24" mufflers going on, no cutout. I'm not worried about what it sounds like in boost, I'm worried about what it's going to sound like when I drive it 7 hours straight to Colorado or California or something, especially since cog whine is constant rather than boost dependent.
