Smokeshow,
I'm glad you are seeing increased boost with the "correct" belt routing. Once you get tired of this level, maybe I can help you to increase the boost by another couple of psi through some other tricks.
If interested, shoot some pics of the driven (blower) pulley from as close to dead on front as possible. Try to get the pulley, blower, part of the alt and part of the PS pump in the pic. Post pics in this message and maybve we can help you (and maybe some others) get the boost they have been looking for.
Glad you are happy with your new found boost.
