[QUOTE="stangfreak, post: 13184334, member: 10655"] Edmund, not that I know of. I still use the stock tensioner on my car. I would go with the IW products. I personally feel that the 2.9 is perfect for this car, especially if its stock. But anything bigger than a 2.9, yes you will have belt slip issue, the crank's that are breaking, plus your forced to run high boost and race gas all the time, and not to mention the heat created by these big blowers. The whole thing about twinscrews "running cooler" I think is bs. I never believed it even back when they made the 2.2 kb. so you should be fine with that 2.9. Then if yu want more power, go turbo. No more worries about belt slip, crank issues etc. Im not a fan of going any bigger than that. I went from a 2.2 2.4 2.3 now to a 2.9 whipple lol I achieved nothing. which is why I refuse to buy a 3.4 whipple or a 4.0. Im going in circles. My next setup will be built 4r and twin 62mm. setup. I will have no problems on the streets unless the other car is packing wht I have. [/QUOTE]
