Default E Force supercharger drive belt problems

I have a LS 7 that recently had a e force supercharger installed
We are running a maximum of 11 psig of boost. I am seeing belt wear debris. Does anyone make a higher capacity belt drive ? Can the LS9 belt drive be adapted ? Anyone else run into this ?

I have seen 127 view but not one single reply ?
Am I the only one out there with an e force supercharger ?

You might be the only one that is running an E-Force at 11 psi(vs 5.5-6 psi it comes with) on their LS7 and I really doubt if anyone has tried a LS9 drive belt if they are running the stock E-Force pulley(5.5-6psi).

Speak to Chuck Cow. I believe he has put together an 8 rib pulley system for the eforce. Personally I have no issue with mine so far.

Yes, we made an 8 Rib kit for the E-Force for EXACTLY that reason....
