Received the last of the cvt parts.  I installed the A50 unrestricted driven pulley set with 1500 contra and 1500 Naraku clutch springs. Installed Naraku variator and outer (red) Naraku pulley half with 6.5g rollers.  Way too much rpm and no top end 10-15 mph below stock.  Took it apart and tried the 8g still not as good top end as stock.  Take off seems like it might be improved slightly over stock but lost a few mph.  Getting dark.  Will pull it back apart on sunday and mark up the pulleys to see what's up.

I think it needs more weight but already have 8g in it.

Is the torque driver different on the A50 I dont feel the mid speed shift? 

It is stock still with the exception of upgrade coil and regulator.

Still stock belt it is in great shape only a couple thousand miles on it.

Any suggestions?

P.s.

The reason it took so long is because I figured I'd wait for the A50 pulley set and the correct impact sockets.

The rpms jump to about 7100 or so at launch and max out at around 8200. Clutch engages around 4500-5000 rpms.

Like I said dont feel that norma mid rpm shift of the curved torque converter.  Forgot both times it was apart to,sharpie the pulleys daahhh.

Will try again Sunday maybe I can video it.

Reading back through Rage's dilemma and this is very similar. If I can find time on Sunday I'll put the stock rollers in and mark the pulleys. A couple of flat spots on the stock 8.5s though.

On order mine is out of specs at 16.8mm just checked before logging on.

And the rear

These are with everything installed as before but with stock rollers....well and a worn out belt.  Top speed was 50 indicated as before at 8100 rpms.

Just a note the A50 pulley set LC10 is smooth all the way to the boss.  I got mine from Chaparral Motorsports online.

Anyone know the cheapest place to get Gates belts from?  I ordered from Amazon but looks like a frequent replacement item so looking for the best deal in the future. i ordered Gates PL20601.  Is that right?

[superscoot]

yeah if anyone knows of a gates belt put a link up...ill give that a try instead of my malossi belt

Thanks for al the options.

I ordered this one the PL20601 732x18.5x28 standard Gates says it won't be here until March 4th fulfillment by Amazon.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000KKFEUG/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER. $2.30 tax (Az) and $5.58 shipping, total  $28.40

Hopefully the Premium PL30601 732x18.5x28 from this vendor will be faster.  If not I'l have one of them soon and can compare over time and report how they fair on my setup.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002R8BT0S/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ADG953YR6NRBF. $0 tax, shipping, $3.95, total $27.44

The funny thing is I paid more for the standard thinking Amazon would ship faster.  They have always in the past.  The second one was from Midway Auto but they also have both belts on Amazon. $18.34 + $3.95 shipping.
