No update. Just know that it works on both of my cars with different pulley setups.
May have to do some customizing based on what setup you have.

Standard belt on the coupe running the 181mm and code 3 pulleys.


Have a longer belt on the vert due to the larger 191mm crank pulley.
Not sure of the size on that one right at this moment.

Awesome thank you. We recently went to the 1/4 track and the car was about .5 second slower than normal so I plan to do the minor mods and retune, try and figure out what's going on

I am going to try this on my SRT6 to possibly resolve my boost issue. 12-14 psi on a 65 and that's the max I am seeing on hard pulls. Never been over 14. Normal driving is like 5-8. Question: I actually have the NW PSK bracket, but not the pullies. Could I use the NW PSK bracket with D.J.'s BWK?

HI Crystal, I have the same issue with my SRT6. I'm only getting 12-14 psi of boost at WOT and 5-10 psi respectively. I'm about to do this mod in order to get a better wrap around the S/C pulley and maximize the 65mm pulley potential. Keep me posted once you do it in order to compare your results with mine. Thanks!

Well SRT6 fans, I just completed this mod. It was fairly easy to get it done. Good news are that I don't have anymore belt slip. Bad news is that unfortunately I'm still experiencing the same low boost readings issue. I'm not getting more than 13 psi at WOT and 8-10 psi at normal acceleration respectively. I also replaced the serpentine belt and the big stock smooth pulley underneath the s/c pulley. The new smooth pulley is smaller than the stock one which provide better clearance between the belt. I bought it from Auto Zone, part #89098. In the case of the top idler closer to the s/c pulley, I smoothed it out enough so the grooves don't cause any damage to the belt. See the pictures attached.







In the other hand, today I will take some time to replace the s/c oil. I'm still looking what is causing the low boost on my car. The issue started upon I installed the NeedsWings OilAir Separator. I have verified the whole installation process but there's nothing wrong with it. Last option will be to check the Y pipe for any leak. Let me know guys what you think about it, any help would be appreciated.

Anyone have a part number and a source for one of those spiffy ht bolts?
check my album for that modification and by the way i can provide a kit that will do that and i can modify the ribbed pulley to make it smooth( i do it on a lathe) just send me your wheel in a box and return address and check for $60.JAMES FASOLD 149 CENTURY RD DANVILLE PA. 17821
