well im waiting for kraftwerks to send me the replacement pulleys.

meantime today i was driving on the highway. I went about 10 miles. All of a sudden i heard no more loud squealing sounds when downshifting. I thought, great maybe it just went away. But i also felt i had no more boost. I thought maybe those pulleys stopped working or something.

I got home, popped the hood and saw the belt snapped, laying there at the bottom of my vehicle. Unbelievable. This is my 5th broken belt!

This is unbelievable. I emailed kraftwerks again and now im waiting their reply. I followed their EXACT tension instructions. Someone Please tell me how this could possibly happen? Now I have another broken belt. I cannot get anywhere with this supercharger. Broken belts. Loud squealing sounds from the pulleys.

I thought the belt issue was resolved. Then had the loud squealing sounds from the pulley. Fail. Everything in this system seems to be failing. I haven't even gone 1k miles in it. I have yet to enjoy it and it just keeps breaking on me.

Everything was tensioned correctly and it failed yet again. When i thought one thing got fixed, another thing happens with the squealing from the pulleys. This system is terrible Terrible design, terriblly finicky with the tension, and i cannot keep wasting my life away dealing with troubleshooting this system to get it working. I've spent so much time here and nothing is working.

I wish they would just replace the entire system or refund me. I am wasting my life away trying to get this system to work.
