yeah , i bolt it up like a stocker does and the belt wont fit , ive looked it all over and their is nothing i can do other than a longer belt , i don't want to do another belt this year bc i don't want to take the procharger off. Even if i put the stock pulley on its tight as hell and it wont work correctly .
Im just hoping someone chimes in a says it works with the stock belt your doing something wrong , bc i want to use this and don't want to change belts.

I use a Katech manual tensioner. Bolts to the stock idler location and works fine with the stock pulley and belt. Seems crazy to me that someone would design one that required a different belt. Good luck solving the problem
