[QUOTE="c6zhombre, post: 15914215, member: 76381"] You would think that....but the reality is the standard construction belts stretch so much, especially after being heated.....they require tremendous pressure at a cold temp to allow for this and not slip once the heat is on and the stretch occurs. The aramid tensile construction of the RPM belt does not stretch, even after being heated. So, massive cold tension is not needed to maintain wrap once you drive the car a while. I've been very pleased with its performance so far, I've had it on for about six months now. And you have to think it's also easier on all the components of the tensioner and pulleys since you're not applying such massive cold pressure like the other belts require. [/QUOTE]
