A clarification: People are saying the TRD belt as in the belt that came with the Supercharger right?

You did not get one in the kit? Odd.
"Belt, Serpentine Drive 7PK2275" - does the TRD belt you bought have similar part number?

I did. I also got my supercharger as soon as it came out. The belt is part of the kit.

Does autozone have the gates belt or whatever belt jwaggz82 and blownupmarine is running? I will go and exchange it if the ones that you two have are better.
