Thanks mate. No dyno results, YET!!!:whistling Only just finished fitting supercharger. I believe, from the add on ebay where i bought the pulley, (pulley bros) they push around 5 PSI. Cant wait to get it dyno'd :yeah: I'm interested myself!! Will post it up as soon as i get it done.

Hi Stocky! Been chattin a bit with Luke (iBlown) about this set-up. I've been experimenting with belt for a while, and had no issues with belt running this way.
Do you know why it has to run the other way? Cos i dont wanna have to drain cooling system every time i need to remove belt :bang:
I've noticed Raptor run their belts in this pattern. I'm still learning, so i'm always open to comments and suggestions, so please let me know ;)
Cheers bud:D

yeah i know the feeling about draining the coolant. bloody annoying. but yeah, you need it to go from the alternator, to the idle pulley, to the charger. will stop the belt slipping, especially if a smaller pulley goes on at some point.

if youre interested in intercooling i have sc14 pipes for sale :) lol

Sweet, i think i better try that set up, i've already got the coolant and lower rad hose at home, just need to cut hose back 30mm at water pump end apparently, to make room for belt.
I would be interseted in pipes... do you have intercooler for sale too?
Like i mentioned before, just getting into boosting, so i dont know a great deal about intercoolers yet!! Do you maybe have a picture i can see of that set up?

nah havent got the cooler, but the pipes are to suit a 600x300 cooler. standard size really. should be able to get one for $100 somewhere.

i wouldve thought having the belt running the way it is now would bring it a lot closer to the radiator hose as opposed to the way i had it. would make sense to move it away from it

quiet opposite!!! It clears hose by a mile!! Thats why i decided to run it that way, but i'm still going to try it the recommended way. Nothing to loose:thumbsup:
How much you after for pipes? Are they the pipes i can see on your VN in pictures? Chunky suckers!!! More flow though... :yeah::yeah:
