Hey guys at what RPM’s does a A&A Vortech on a stock motor start to build boost?
Thanks cruzbox

That's going to depend on the pulley combination. The smaller the pullies, the faster you will make boost.

Default Pulleys

I understand the ratio between the diameters will make a difference but there has to be a standard size and a limitation of pulleys that can be used so is there a chart to get a idea?
I would really like to go this route and just starting to do some homework, thanks

Just search others build. Silver408z already answered your question. There is no definitive answer. Depends on motor and set up. Or call A&A

Thanks guys, I will contact A&A and talk with them, I’m just looking for general answers, what’s your set up and when does the boost start and when is it full on.

With a centri blower boost is always “full on” at redline. They are belt driven so the faster the motor spins, the faster the blower spins(ie the more air the blower can push).

Like everyone else said depends on alot of variables. Here is a ysi with a 3.33 pulley and 8" crank.
