Max MP62 Power on stock VVT engine
#21
Dang, Jeff, why the hate, bro?
I made a little over 200 whp @ 10 lbs boost, 4 rib belt, stock internals on a powercard as well and never had an issue. Mine nor Jeff's cars are VVT. Don't know if that makes a difference. Now I did grenade a 5 speed transmission at that power. But that coulda just as easily been operator error as I was just learning to drive at the track.
You gonna yell at me too, Jeff?

My track rat is a 99 but the street car that I bought the charger for originally was a 02
6 rib is a waste of money unless you have no PS or AC. If you have PS or both stick with a 4 rib.

Hmm, I'm assuming you must have a BRP type kit then, right? I don't recall any 6-rib setup, let alone with an auto-tensioner, being available for the later generation Moss/TDR hotside kits, other than custom one-offs.
I am curious why that overlay pulley messed up your blower though. Were you already running a really small nose pulley when you added it, or what?
The overlay always seemed like the lesser of evils if you were stuck with no auto-tensioner and a 4-rib setup, as you could retain more belt traction by keeping a larger nose pulley in conjunction with the overlay. Do you think that is not so?

For the record, we do not have 55mph speed limits over here, and I cruise at 100mph+ on the freeway.
