Gatorback > Gates

[usaf_branham]

I don't understand why manufacturers such as Kenne Bell and Procharger are such gates fanboys. I swapped to the Goodyear Gatorback on my old KB car, picked up 1 psi and had zero noise. I just swapped the belt to a continental elite (they acquired the gatorback) on my procharged car because it kept chirping... again, boost is coming in harder and it's silent.

If I ever supercharge another car in the future, I won't even bother installing the supplied belt. I will just preemptively order the gatorback. Lol.

I had an old p600b procharger with intercooler on a 5.0 pushrod motor and that thing ate belts left and right(6 rib belt.) Once i switched to a gatorback it never broke a belt until I sold the car many thousands of miles later.
