And by the way Toda underdrives only the alternator and the gain is in the range of 1 hp max. The dyno shows more gains and it is not a 0 hp gain for the crank pulley. |
Perfect analogy. If a car is a bike lightening the crank pulley is like removing the bell from your handle bars.
Toda is undersized crank pulley, so it underdrives everything.
Fensport is oversized alt and water pulley, so it underdrives alt/water
