Shane,

I have finally finished with a few other projects that were ahead of Shawn. His 928 is going into my shop this weekend for disassembly and should have pics and update details next week.

BTW, here is a teaser photo of our new style Idler System that is going on his 85 (not Powder coated yet).

Now that setup will really prevent belt slippage. Nice work, Dave!

I should be able to tell you tomorrow. Actually, I think the Provent is supposed to sit a bit lower, but liek I said, I'll tell you tomorrow for sure.

Camera angle, it actually sits lower than the way it has been on the first systems.

I have to admit, I have not kept up with all the 928 SC goodies. But from the beginning, I have been wondering how you guys were ever going to get those SC belts from slipping!

I think you may have the answer now. Nice Job, very nice indeed!

Dr, that looks like it should eliminate slippage! When we added another idler after the IC install it kept me from losing any boost.

Maybe at SITM, perhaps? I think it is great how you keep improving on your system. You've really made some innovative designs. Did you ever think that you should be working for Aufrecht Melcher Großaspach (now, Mercedes-AMG)?

DR pre dynoed my car as well. 265 rwhp, only mod being the x-pipe. That puts me 7hp away from Jeannies S4 in stock form (same dyno too). I'm pretty happy with that. Also, the valve covers shown should look like mine will, assuming he doesn't have any issues getting mine off to powder coat.

More updates coming soon....
