About another day or so here I will get a shot of it running, I have the front end tore off right now putting in a breather can to get the oil out of my intake...

I agree. I called and talked to them this morning. They're reviewing the videos and will let me know. Hopefully hear something this afternoon from them. I'd like to resolve this for the weekend.I imagine the vibration you are feeling in the blower is actually coming from the tensioner reverberating through the bracket. With that low of boost level and the 8 rib, you shouldn't be having any slip at all, even without the Griptec pulley. Call Procharger and see if they might warranty the tensioner for you.
Thanks! Yes looks similar... are you getting any tremor or shake in the headunit while you're idling there? I talked to procharger again yesterday evening. They're sending me a new tensioner; said it could take unto two weeks. I'll prob tighten the belt up just a smidge between now and then.Finally got it back together... as promised here is mine running for comparison. Guess it shakes about as much, maybe a little bit less, maybe.
No my head unit is smooth as butter, I was actually going to set a glass of water on top of it, but thought better of the mess it would make if it did fall over... lolThanks!

I haven’t received my tensioner yet. As soon as it comes in I’ll post a part number and give some feedback. They told it might take two weeks to ship due to powder coating.Anything on this? Mine is doing the same thing and makes an intermittent growling buzz. I’ve heard this since day one but now it’s worse, and gets worse the tighter the belt is. Anyone have p/n feedback on the new tensioner system they’re now sending? Can’t remember whether I saw it here, or FB group.
Did they redesign it?
Hey man that post is just about the zpe griptec pulley. I have it and it works on any set up. That inner hub of the pulley is reversible.Yes they did. See post #79. Unfortunately you have to get a whole new head unit bracket too, which I'm sure they'll want $400+ for...

Thanks for the reply... So increase tension and go to the green belt?OK guys.... sorry I been MIA for a while... just been traveling a lot and pulled in other directions.
Since slip is basically impossible on a STG2 kit, this is an easy fix.... literally I have ran three P-1X cars with 3.40" pulleys in the last few months and have zero slip even at 4 digit power numbers, and our stock pulleys. (I do run a green belt on those cars though) Anyways... let's get to the meat and potatoes here.
1) THE SHAKE: the idle variation in the motor causes the shake, that's normal...
2) TENSION: I can see that in that video that tensioner is only at 25% of its clamping force. I would move that up, and get it closer to the next notch if it was me, so you would be getting at least 50% of the spring force in it.
