Default Vortech s/c , broken belt

Yesterday I broke the belt on my vortech b18b Integra. Dont really know what the cause is, but from what I've heard these belts have a tendancy of breaking for no reason, is that right?

I've bought a new belt, along with a new power steering belt, cause I think the s/c belt got stuck in the p/s and snapped the belt in 2.
Therefor I dont plan on putting back p/s, but would like to know if this problem happened to someone else on here?

And if somebody would have good advice to give me on what good of happened. (other the going turbo lol)

anyone has a part number for the s/c belt?

thanks a lot guys!

I just got the kit as well.
Torque is very nice, I use to drive a ITR, and my 94 LS s/c is much faster then the R. I have the aftercooler, DC Spec R header and a2.5" custom exhaust with a magnaflow muffler.
