Default belt problems

I have a 2003 Mustang GT supercharged with the eaton m90 from a saleen. i keep shredding belts. does anyone know what the right length is for these? i took the stock saleen belt in and got an exact match in length so i dont think its the belt size. i think its the tensioner. now my question. should i just get an OEM tensioner? or buy a better one? im making 325hp and 7psi. i am on a budget. im a poor college student. if the stock one will work thatd be the best one. oh and i have like 65000 miles on the car

Don't know about length, however from experience you need to use a Goodyear Gatorback or a Dayco Poly-Cog. Anything Gates makes won't hold up, and Kelly-Springfield is just plain crap.

Bando belts are also good, but hard to find...
