Default 2003 GT with saleen SII blower

question about my setup. the power steering reservoir bracket is suuupper close to the belt since the pulley on the blower steepened the angle of the belt. ill attach a picture, but i was wondering if there is some sort of relocation bracket that i should have gotten with the kit that would put it out of harms way? the reason this came up is that the belt shreaded yesterday, and i think it may have been because of the bracket. if anyone knows please let me know so i can go about getting it. thanks.

You should be fine. Would have went with a kenne bell for the price of a saleen supercharger though.

yeah, i got it used from a friend of mine upgrading to a turbo, so it was about hald the price of a kenne bell, or i would have gotten a kenne bell.

actually, like 1/3 of the price of a kenne bell

KB's for our cars intercooled are right around $5400 new. But if youre doing this just for a little get up and go its a decent buy. But if you have future plans for close to 400rwhp or better, you picked the wrong blower.

for 2k its a good buy. And for the price he could always sell it for close to what he paid for it if he wants to upgrade...

yep, i just wanted for a quick boost in numbers. made 320, but my fuel pump died on me. and that was with no fine tuning on the dyno. once i get a new fuel pump ill see the real numbers. also believe i have a vacuum leak.
