Radix Pulley on a Long Fast Trip
I Have to drive to Richmond VA this weekend for my Nephews Graduation, Would it Benifit me at all to put a larger pulley on the Radix. Reason I ask is I cruise at 75,85,90 Mph. Probably about 2500,3000 RPM. Would slowing the blower down a little help anything. I have a 3.2" on now and a 3.4 I could put back on... any thoughts?????????????? It's about 400 miles each way..

I don't think a bigger pulley will help. I lost 2-3mpg with both the 3.3" and 3.0" pulley. The smaller pulley made no difference in mileage but, did add some hp.
