AAD Performance Billet TRX / Hellcat IHI Supercharger Tensioner Pulley
Eliminate belt slip and improve supercharger performance on your Ram TRX or Hellcat-powered vehicle with the AAD Performance Billet IHI Tensioner Pulley.
This precision-machined 6061 billet aluminum pulley replaces the factory plastic or stamped tensioner pulley with a much stronger, larger-diameter design that provides significantly better belt wrap and tension.
The result is reduced belt slip, quieter operation, longer belt life, and more consistent boost under hard acceleration. Whether you’re running a stock setup or a high-horsepower build, this pulley is a simple yet highly effective upgrade that addresses one of the most common weak points in the IHI supercharger drive system.
Key Features

- Precision Machined – Tight tolerances for smooth, quiet operation
- Anodized Finish – Corrosion-resistant and professional appearance

Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: Will this pulley reduce belt slip on my TRX?
- A: Yes. The larger diameter and billet construction significantly improve belt wrap and reduce slip, especially on high-horsepower builds.
- Q: Is this a direct replacement?
- A: Yes. It bolts directly in place of the factory tensioner pulley with no modifications required.
- Q: Do I need a new belt when installing this pulley?
- A: It is highly recommended to replace the supercharger belt at the same time for best results and longevity.
- Q: Will this work on non-TRX Hellcat vehicles?
- A: Yes, as long as your vehicle uses the IHI supercharger (most 2015+ Hellcat-powered vehicles do).
