"Jilles mentioned that the pulleys are larger than those on the 418, which makes the car accelerate more smoothly and feels like it has more traction, and both will be black as the plastic doesn’t show dirt as much as the white plastic on the prototype pulley seen here."
High chance 39t too. No need for a new injection moulding die that way as they can just take the front from the TA06. Save a bit of coin, why not!
I am not sure about that. The gear housing half looks different on the outside.
And it's not going to make life easy for stock classes, with the new internal ratio. Hopefully will move to a higher tooth count for the center pulleys (don't hold your breath).
