Boost Question for anyone wish answers!
You should not be pushing your car in neutral to see if it's achieving max boost. You should only do this under load while driving.
You should give more detail on your kit....when it was installed, who installed it. If the kit is new, or used. If the kit is new or newly installed then you are supposed to re-tighten the belt after a 1000 miles. If you don't it will have a tendency to slip. Additionally you could be losing boost at any of the multiple connection points on the kit. Check all your hose clamps and make sure they are connected around the entire circumference of the joint. Particularly where the snail meets the Aftercooler.

The kit was brand new out of the box. One of my guys who's had 35 years of experience did all the work. Grant it we did it right in his garage but trust me this guy is really good. Plus he is a tech at Downtown Honda in Spokane. I'll remember to tighten the belt after 1000 miles....I didnt know that...Like i've said I totally new to the Supercharger world. i've been dealing with turbo systems and stuff like that. If I can figure out how to post pics I'll post some up here for you guys. We took everything step by step though. Anyone got anything else.
You should check the belt NOW for the correct tension. Try to twist it and see if it twist more that a 1/4 turn. If so it's too loose.
From reading your post.... is it safe to say you haven't even driven it yet? If so..... then this thread is pointless until you drive the car.
