We all have belt dust on our pulley's... I dont think that necessarily means you have belt slip. Are you seeing boost drop suddenly?
haha, I'm just messin with ya Rob...I don't think 10.3 is within the realm of possibility without spray.

Honestly, I haven't even looked at my race log yet and don't look at my gauges when barreling down the track.

I wallered out my blower nose to 102mm and after doing so, the green rubber gasket wouldn't seal between the TB and blower nose. I made my own gasket from Vitron Rubber, then 102 spacer, then TB.

I'm not sure how much psi I'm losing exactly, but I do know it slips like a bastard, 2 psi was just a guess

Would be kind of fun to put an electrical pickup on the blower pulley and compare that to the engine rpm to see if there is actual slip going on.

Speaking of pulleys. Have yall seen the new design of some of the pulleys coming out that the grooves are dimpled instead of rip cut?

Are you talking the griptec pullies that superchargers online has? I have not seen them in person, nor have I seen what the grooves themselves look like.
