Default broke my belt tensioner today

And it was the new upgraded one too. Good thing I hung onto the old one. I wonder if there is a warranty on that thing?

I had a good tight belt on it. I went into full boost and hears an ungodly noise.....I thought I blew an exhaust gasket....my tensioner was jumping around and a horrible noise. broke the pins off the back sie.
