i will check if they do a vacuum leak test here, i live in Saudi Arabia, so i am not sure if that is even possible here.

True, but when i first installed the kit i didn't have test pipe and it was at 7 psi max also. it feels like thats the maximum pressure that it can reach

As for your issue I would say get with TBatt and his no-slip setup, sounds like a slip issue
well, i dont get a vent sound from the BOV, nothing from the originial BOV that came with the kit or with QRJ. i dont get a sound at all, its like the valve is not releasing anything.

Don't rule out a leak though. You can do the leak check pretty easy if you have a compressor and a good regulator. That is how I found mine.
please share a link of a belt that you recommend and i will ask the mechanic to have look at it. also, would you have by any chance a link explaining how to do leak test?

As an aside, it's sad and disturbing how many motors a setup like that has killed, considering how robust this platform really is.
you just made me google "Another One Bites The Dust" !!
whats wrong with this setup?
