[QUOTE="TerminatoRS, post: 16400159, member: 195778"] Yes you can run an aux idler and leave the others stock. Many people do this without issues. I was one of them. Like you stated, the problems seem to arise in more modified setups with larger crank pulleys and frequent upper RPM visits combined with hard shifts. In addition to the added peace of mind, the 5-piece kit will allow you to gauge which aux pulley size to use (90 or 100) to maximize belt wrap around the blower pulley while maintaining adequate clearance. If I were you, I'd just do the 5-piece. Chances are you're going to end up doing it eventually anyway, they look pretty, and they're very easy to install. On top of that, the chart for belt length will be totally applicable assuming all your other pulleys are stock diameter (tensioner, alternator, crank...etc). The Gates RPM belt is the hot ticket these days while we're on the subject. [/QUOTE]
