Seeking help...Wind Trainer mod

[cdn_bacon]

I have a Novara wind trainer. It's archaic, it's loud, but hey it works. Solid drum. stable when I stand up on it. all is well.

my question is, would anyone have any modifation that they could imagine up (within $$ reason) that would offer a different resistance than the small wind turbines that are attached? I'll try and take a closeup so that you can see, but this is just a put-it-out-there-and-see-if-anyone-has-an-idea kinda thing.

belt drive?

I used to have one of these and I used to drop tire pressure and lower the tire further down on the roller.
