I also wonder what the friction losses through it are? I may not have looked carefully enough, but I didn't see that mentioned in the website. If they're significantly less than a belt-and-pulley system, it could be a really big win! Complex and expensive, though. I wonder what the cost would be for a retrofit system, and how long it would take to make that back with fuel savings?

Hmm....
