got any tips, cos i cant get mine tight either using std belts.  there appears to be a gap in the adjustment slot to suggest it will move more, but the charger seems to be getting stuck against something, possibly the exhaust manifold.  at  the moment the belts will start to scream by 5k

it might be the intercooler pipe stopping it moving!
