Depending on how tight of a belt you bought you may have to remove the idler pulley next to the supercharger for belt wrap to put it on. I always have to. You'll notice the new belt will be /very/ hard to put on. But its worth it. You may scrap up a knuckle or two but it shouldnt be to bad.

Hope this helps!

It really just takes a lot of force. I wrap it around everyting besides the aux. idler and then have a friend crank down on the tensioner while I pry the belt on the pulley with my fingers.

Cmon is this really a question? Route the mother****er, take up the slack in the belt and get it ready to go on one of the pullies, push down the tensioner with a ratchet and slip it on. Takes like 5 minutes
