That's with the 3-stage. Would the N54 manifold have more top end? I'll probably replace the belt itself. It doesn't happen every time and it seems to happen randomly within the first mile of driving when it does happen.

Thanks, I appreciate it! It gives me E36 vibes
Yes, they stretch. And I change it every year, they also switched to a continental belt at ESS now. I can dig it up, and got specs/type from AJ. Nice power man, congrats!
Also make sure your tensioner is fresh... and new belt is shorter. Mine slipped to when cold during turn, after about a year of use. But on continental now and better, 10 min job.
