The horsepower improvement is incredible.
Kinda like replacing the small block with a big block in your Mustang/Camaro muscle car. Just pure power, so much so
that you will never use all of it. This system provides full power at any speed and that includes Spindle RPM's as low as
50 RPM's in low gear. You may want to consider the high low gears inside the head and at least lube them with a high
end sling free grease.
 
Motor and spindle speeds + Reverse:
The motor speed can be programmed and or full range can be achieved with just the speed control rotary knob on the controller. Speed control programming only requires a few easy steps.
Reverse on the fly is simple; Just push the blue latching  button.
Programming includes the ability to set bottom and top RPM range separately. In other words you can program the system to run the spindle at any speed or range of speeds you choose (see below).
Slowest speed achievable: Motor 200 RPM
Highest speed this one produced: Motor 4,500 RPM.
