Well after 1 year of owning my powerdyne and mesing around with belt slippage and other possibilities Brian(driver79) got things figured for me.

Last weekend I was up in Wausau and I installed my smog pump delete and we noticed that my discharge tube where the bypass threads had a possible air leak. He 2 part epoxied it and I put the blower belt back on yesterday.

I finally saw 8lbs on the gauge at about 5200 r's!! She's running strong as ever :rockon:

Thanks Brian :banana:

Mikey are you running a bypass valve? Make sure you are if you are getting up to 8-9 PSI. I know base kits do not have one. If you run without one, you can have the impeller explode upon decell from full throttle and send metal shards thru the motor.
