Default Squealing during hard turning

I just installed my unorthodox racing underdrive pulley. Now when I turn my wheel all the way to either side, and pull away (like from a parkin spot) it squeals. I thought it'd be low power steering fluid so i filled it to max. Still heard it. I'm assumin it's the belt being too tight. Any info? I'm gonna be installin new belts next week, cuz i'ma order the Gates belts that unorthodox racing recomments b/c the shop gave me the wrong a/c belt so i got no a/c :cry:

Uh oh, get some belt prep and give the belts a good coat after checking their tension, esp. the P/S pump.

just make sure they are as tight as they should be.

Yes, they can be adjusted too tight. It can cause stress on the bearings for each pulley possibly causing them to fail prematurely.

The belts are the right tension, looking at the power steering belt, it's a little frayed and it looks like it's rubbing when it moves. I'm ordering the Gates belts this week and gonna replace both belts (right now i'm running w/ no a/c belt because the parts guy gave me an OEM belt.
