Gates green stripe blower belt

[Detroitboy]

During research on Gates belts for our blowers I happened across a listing for gates green stripe belts. Has anyone heard of these? Are they any better than the green gates belts #100579 at Amazon for under $40?

Thinking they are the same belt. I run the standard black belts. The green belts can snap being they have less give and they don't grip any better

I use these belts, they are made for supercharger use, they hold up well and I turn my superchargers pretty hard, used same one on my whipples as well when I was running them.

That size belt fits with using the AAD Idler pulley in center mounting hole with +10 lower with that 2.74 Satera Griptech prepped upper with 1/2” thick FI Insulator Spacers. Blower making 25.5 psi of boost very little belt dust.
Also fits +10 lower stock upper and no spacers or idler pulley.

Yes, 25.38 to be exact with my hand ported 2.7 snout and 105 TB, has my custom billet 2.7 inlet plate with oiled bearing, the thing is singing but staying happy so far!! Have to try the SDG snout and NW 108 TB someday.

Man that’s moving air! Wonder what mine makes no (just a dinky 2.4) pretty sure I’m maxing out the stock map sensors

Nice!!
My guesstimate of boost on stock displacement, stock or RE cam, stock exhaust including cats, 20-21 psi 1900-1950 aircharge.
Yes, most likely your 2 Bar map sensors are maxed out around 18-19 or less. (2 bar is 14.7x=29.4 - 14.7 = 14.7 psi, that’s why RE 2.7 blowers where equipped with three bar sensors which read to about 30 psi of boost or so.
