My supercharger belt split in half!?!? ECS kit
I was wondering if anyone can explain how my main supercharger belt on my ECS setup just split in half? Attached are some pics and a video. Furthermore, what type of belt can I get to replace it and where can I get one (autozone maybe?) thanks for the help just really confused how it happened because it doesn't seem like it rubbed on anything either.

Check the belt path completely especially in the tensioner are being that's what moves when torque is applied
Take one half of the belt to an auto parts store and they can measure it for you they just need to know the rib count

Yea it was just the stock setup no pulley changes so need to figure out that size 8 or 10 rib? So how do I check though should I see what happens when I have someone rev the car? I sent the pics and video to ECS but no response back yet and I did bring the car down to them and they did a long once over and changed some things around to how their tec likes to have the setup positioned so I am surprised that something caused this. I just don't know how to tell what could hit it perfectly in the middle while in boost if that's the case of the tensioner? Maybe they didn't position it right? When idle it seems fine causes the bottom pulley to wiggle a little by the crank but I assume that's because there is half a belt on it.

Could be that something got in between the ribs and caused it to split or maybe just a defected belt. On my old setup I had one of the ribs on both crank and blower pulley scraped. Looked like it I sanded the paint off on just one rib and the belt was flawless.

Mine has done it 3 times in the 3 years ive had it. Not really sure what causes it, cant see anything wrong. Autozone has them and one year warranty so ive got a couple for free.

Maybe try white shoe polish on belt and run it for a few mins and see if there is any scraping on something...

I had the belt on my Maggie do the exact same thing. Turned out the tensioner was too loose and allowing the belt to jump around when getting off the throttle after full boost. After tightening it up, it hasn't happened since. IMO, I would start there and make sure the belt is as tight as possible.

If I ended up getting the wrong one, which I don't believe I did, can you guys send me some links to the exact belts needed for the ECS kit. I really would appreciate that also from other readings I might buy an extra and just keep it in the trunk.
