So I got a chance to test out tapp primary and secondary this weekend in glamis with 100 degree temps. I also installed the RPM blower fan and razorback temp guage. Some interesting results. Belt temps when just cruising around through smaller dunes and hard pack were avg 145. The highest temps I recorded were 194 on a full throttle Olds hill climb. Faster paced duning was a consistent 194-195. When I came to a stop however instead of belt temps climbing the rpm blower would immediately begin to cool the cvt housing and belt down. I know there is some misconception out there about the blower being an obstruction but by its larger than the tube design I don't think that is the case. One thing to note is i did follow some guidance from some of you on tapp primary set up. Most of you added a bunch of weight to keep rpms down. I had mine set up with 2 screws each in all the roller arms and clickers on #2. What i found was that my RPMs were too low with this setting average 8200 from 0 to 55 wide open throttle. From my dyno testing I know my car makes max power from 9000-9500. I decided against doing any clutch adjustments to bring rpms up because it was a short trip and just way too hot out. Other than the low rpms it ran smooth and had no belt issues.
