They are off a 2ltr Toyota Crown,not really big enough for the Laine.
Diff gears will provide better allround results. I have personally seen one on a VN V6 at it was running 6lbs of boost max and is very restrictive on top end,feels n/a after 4000rpm.The person is now fitting two but thats not an option on a I6. |

As has been said, no, its not worth it.
With small pulleys and very good cooling you will get some boost out of it, for the fab work required... Its no good.. Although, could be fun on my daily driver

On A 6 cylinder commie, they can make up to 120rwkw. Seeing as we make that virtually stock, Id say its too small.

yep, go the Raptor Kris. All the hard work is already done for you, and all you'd need to do is fit it. A unit like the one you posted as mentioned will require a more money/time/fabrication/headaches than you'd ever want.
Save hard and do it right the first time bro. Its worth it believe me.
