The white belts are more flexible than the black ones, because they are a different material (which is also quite crap in terms of longevity) that's the only reason why they sort of give a better efficiency. I've been running both types of belts and frankly can't tell the difference on the track, that's why i use black belts, they last a lot longer.

The front oneway pulley fit fine on a Speedtech spool but I had to drill the holes out to fit it on a Tamiya spool. The holes that the screws go through are a little further out from center than a stock 415 oneway pulley. Hopefully I can get some pictures taken soon of my new ride. Onroad season isn't coming soon enough.

Now i got white diff pulleys on my MSX, which I might never feel the difference...

I guess the only factor would be could you back off the belt tensioners enough to fit the bigger centre pulley?

Or will they use the 415msx at the worlds?

I thought that the main advantage was having a higher internal ratio (2.25 as opposed to 2.1875) so if you had the 18T Tech Racing Pulley, that would bring your internal ratio down to 2.00 if you use the TA05 Diff Pulleys, or 1.94 if you used the 415 Diff Pulleys.

Why would you want to use the 18T TA05 Pulleys on the 415 if the IR is lower??
