    I dont know how this will improve performance in anyway. I just think its a stronger part than our OEM tensioner but unless your OEM fails, no reason to buy this

    I was thinking at my psi levels I might be getting some belt slip I'm not noticing and losing some psi

    people are doing low 11's into the 10s without belt slip, you can usually tell your getting belt slip at higher rpm. This could definitely help with belt slippage but a new and right size belt should work fine.

    If your belt slips, you will have a lot of black dust on the sc tip and under the belt. If no dust then no slip.
