paxton questions
Does anyone know if the sn92 vr-4 paxton has the gears or has ball bearings? Also is this a decent supercharger or should I sell it and get a better one? Last question, I can not turn the pulley on the front, but when I spin the fins on the back the pulley turns. Is this normal? Thanks for the help!

The VR4 is a ball drive unit.
It should be difficult but not impossible to turn by hand at the pulley.
The reason it is difficult to turn at the pulley is the step-up ratio of the ball drive. By turning it at the impeller you bypass that.
