Wsup guys, I need a new supercharger belt, and fellow member suggested getting a belt from these guys http://www.gates.com/ has anybody every used them, or heard of them? I trust the member who suggested this...but I just wanted some Info from you guys, on what you know or think about the belts they make

Been making them for a looooooooong time.

Doesn't it depend on size needed?

Jangy is there somthing else you suggestttt? I just want 1 to replace my Stock belt its shreded , but I want somthing better than OEM, somthing that dosnt slip, and runs smoother...I know some people use the JAG belt...

Yeah, Gates has been making belts, like, forever. Not sure they'd be any better than the factory belt though. You might also look into Roulands.

I have the Jag belt and it is nothing special. It is just bigger. Actually, I am about to research and find a slightly smaller one. The Green is cute, but all belts slip. They are supposed to. It just means you are being jerky with the throttle

excuse my lack of info...but whyd you put on the JAG belt? or why use a jag belt or after market belt at all? its not really to save money so why do it?

Jag belt is for guys with larger crank pulleys if I am not mistaken.

Gates makes great belts for stockers and larger pulley guys too.

I never liked Dayco and believe me...been through a LOT of belts.

Going from a 165mm to a 178mm crank pulley means the OEM pulley does not stretch. The Jag is larger in diameter. It is also green, maybe that helps.

Gates K080514 is what you need.

thankss for the input guys

Thank God for Vadim.

He is totally correct GF. I shouldn't help while working, gets me everytime.

Sorry for the faulty info.

I used the Gates too..

there is a HD version.. but they look exactly the same.

by the way.. if you feel lots of jerking..I would check the position of the belt and re-install..

for some reason or another.. did a reinstall the other day and less jerk.
