Yep, Mario gave some feedback, but I would like you to answer my question. I an looking to purchase this product with a good answer from the manufacturer.
Is this system safe to take on long trips? It seems to me that running a 6-rib off of a 4 rib that is being taxed by the AC-Compressor would not last long at all. I have also seen where others have had problems. I am not trying to knock the product, but want to understand more why you think it is ok to run all of this off of that 4 rib belt.

You are more prone to failure from a single serpentine belt driven system, routing from the supercharger all the way around the accessories and back to the blower while cranking excessively down in an attempt to prevent belt slip.

It seems a very nice kit!
I really want to see some customer's review about this kit especially anyone who had a belt slippage issue and after installing this kit he had 0 slippage now!
If this is the case,, I will be in the queue to get this kit soon
(currently I have A&A 8-rip setup)

I ordered my kit today. I have a A&A 8 rib setup with a YSI and supporting mods. With a 10% overdriven crank and 3.00" pulley I am seeing about 13#s of boost and make 850rwhp. I am hoping to pick up a solid 2#s with no other changes and close in on the 900rwhp mark.

Julian,
I forgot to ask. But I already upgraded to a complete 8 rib setup on my z. I assumed that the 8 rib pulleys will be ok with the flip drive. Just thought I would run the 6 rib belt and just have the extra 2 ribs on the accessory pulleys. Please confirm that this should work fine?
Thanks
