Exclamation Does a SC require a break in?

After the install can you start boosting it full redline?

I would just check the fittings for any leaks, and check the belt.

The correct interval for tightening the belt is when the belt stretches to slipping it needs to be tightened. I have found belts slipping badly after 50 to 100 miles. I have ended up tightening them two, three even 4 times before they stop stretching. Tightening the belt on a Comptech is a quick proceedure. The Vortech takes a little longer. If you leave the plastic bottom aero piece off the Vortech adjustment goes much quicker.

I put about 100 miles on mine before I started 'jumping on it."

Thanks for the reminder about the belt retightening folks.
