need help with supercharger issue
after my last post about my s/c belt slipping i got anti slip spray and all was well, then the next day my belt snapped.
i replaced belt yesterday and today it snapped again, brand new belt.
looking at it i think the cause could be the tensioner, it look out of line just and i think its kicking it out, my problem is i think its the frame, or is there a better tension/ automatic tension i can use?
i can replace either and does anyone on here have a frame or make frames that are good quality and has anyone come across this problem? thanks for reading my book haha.

the tensioner could be worn and and seizing up replace the tensioner ask for a toyota supra 7mgte timing belt tensioner at your local auto factors.

I always thought my frame wasnt great i also had it strengthened, i think i got a replica but not a great one. I could be wrong and i hope i am.

both should take you to pictures. you can see that the pully sort of kicks in a bit, i hope am wrong though.

07-01-2023, 03:25 AM #9hi guys i took whole s/c off today and the frame with tensioner on is way off, the pulley on engine is straight. but it look like the s/c and engine pulley are in-line i more pictures but i really believe i need a new frame and maybe the frame i got was a DIY and poor job at that. i could be wrong but let me know your thoughts. i think the only reason i am having problems now is the increase in power is giving me the signs that it cant handle and that maybe since i have had the s/c there has always been a problem.
