I'm debating whether or not to add a 10% overdrive crank pulley to prevent belt slip on my Vortech supercharger. I am concerned about overspinning my A/C, Water and Alternator.

Can anyone chime in on these concerns?

Thanks in advance,

I am interested in this as well. I haven't taken into account over-spinning the a/c, water, or alternator. I have only looked at over-spinning the head unit. You would just be going over the max impeller speed for the head unit at 6,000. Max impeller speed for V2/V3 is 52,000. Using the stock crank, and the 3.125 pulley, you would be spinning the head unit at 47,485. With the 10% overdrive pulley, you would be spinning the head unit at 52,234. Although if I were you, I would get an intercooler or aftercooler before getting the overdrive pulley.
