Thank you for your input. I have not reached out to Aaron yet, but I will.

There are 2 length belts that are used with the a2a kit. Your's might be the one that's a little longer. Changing to the shorter one may help. Depends on if your stock tensioner is maxed out. I'm amazed that you're getting slip at such a low psi. In the 4 years I was supercharged, I never had belt slip on the serpentine side and I was running close to 17 psi for a few of those years and 19.5 until I blew my motor.

I agree with being amazed by how much belt slip I'm getting. I have followed your build for quite some time and gave me the confidence with this kit. I'll be following your next build as well

I appreciate you following my build and with it helping you with your build. I almost wonder if your OEM tensioner might be maxed out due to the belt being too tight and isn't taking up the slack anymore or if the tensioner got damaged for the same reason. Before I switched over to Topgunz's tensioner pulley, I was using another fabricators set up which ended up damaging 2 idler pulleys and my OEM tensioner due to my tensioner being maxed out.
