10 Rib Pulley system?

Ok here is my issue, I had my motor built and Maggie installed, well they dyno car today and had issue with the belt slipping at 9psi? It was recommended that a 10 rib system wouldnt do this.

So does anyone have any expierience with this and is 2000$ worth upgrading to 10 rib system, does it really make that big of a difference. Or how do I prevent the belt from slipping at (PSI).

It put down 613 HP 584TQ and only 7PSI and not full power? So whats some options here and what about meth? They said if I did Meth injection would also help the temps from climbing so fast and hot.

I am new at all this stuff some one HELP. If you need my cam and engine specs let me know!

The RX Gatorgrip 6 rib SC pulley cures most slippage issues, but the 8 rib system is only app 1/4th that for everything except the dampner & the belt.....

You do not need the 10 rib system and FYI it's more than 2k. The easiest thing to do would be to change out the rear pulley to an OD cog drive and then you'll be able to run a bigger pulley up front, get better belt wrap, and eliminate slippage. After that you can then try the Jannetty super tensioner.
