Default Good issue to have?

I recently bought a F1d to replace my P1sc. Problem I may have is i have to spin the F1d to max impeller speed right out of the box due to the transmission step up in the charger and my 8 in od IW crank pulley.

Guess thats it, carry on.














































Oh and my confusion on trying to understand is since pretty much everything is the same on all the f series is why the max rpm is so much lower on the f1d over all the others? Only thing different is the impeller which is prob the reason why. I am a bit confused also since the blower I bought is stamped f1d and 74k and their site says 65k.

Hat would be cool but I ran the serial # at procharger. F1d. I'll know tomorrow since that's when the big brown truck shows up.
