Doesn't Ted make a whipple tensioner?
The maggie one he makes works great. |

slip
i dont know if its the tensioner because this is a beefier unit from whipple then what kit comes with or if it's ajustments we need to make on upper pulley...
These numbers are on a mustang dyno... |

Its got to be tension, I see no reason to be slipping a 10 rib setup unless your over 20psi then maybe but I would asume the Whipple will be overspun @ 20psi

Jamie made a thread about the RIPS pulleys, maybe take a look at that if you haven't seen that yet.

Overdrive the crank and increase the pulley size assuming that's your issue. I would think tensioner first though. Gets pricey throwing parts at something without knowing for sure first.

yeah .... sucks whipple claims no slip with this setup and its slips like crazy at 5k is what i was told.. so im gonna look into a better tensioner.

I've heard that tensioner works really well, so maybe a overdrive crank pulley like suggested earlier....
