Default Katech + S/C

I couldn't find where anyone posted this, so I thought I would.

You can indeed use the Katech solid accesory belt tensioner with a super charger IF the s/c has it's own separate belt (like an ATI does).

I just got off the phone with Katech & they said it was fine. Which is good because my car has been popping the acc belt 1 groove for a while, and Saturday it came off completely at the track taking out my p/s hose with it!

I've been running my Katech tensioner for a couple of months now with no issues to report. The Katech tensioner did not come with the pulley, therefore I had to purchase a stock gm tensioner and take the pulley off.

Katech tells me they come with a pulley now. Not that I care. I have a polished MBA pulley/bearing.
