Question; This could have been asked & answered through this thread,as i didn't see it.
Will this kit offer a separate cogged pulley/belt set-up? or just use a serpentine w/plenty of belt wrap?
Also, I'm sure that UpRev or Ecutek Tuner's would be able to adjust & tune parameter's for the Whipple?

I believe it has been answered. They are running a cog belt directly off a specialized crank pulley adapter. They still have some testing to do to determine what size pulleys to run. But I expect at least a 5" crank pulley will be used in the base kit. Now you can overdrive the charger unit but at the cost of heat and efficiency. As far as the rest of the pulley setup I am unsure as they are still looking at the best and simplest way to make their tensioners.
