That's pretty impressive bud :) I'm actually surprised it's that much.

@NafemanNathan: The result is really impressive. Especially the torque curve improvement across the whole RPM range :) Considering how cheap these are, this is a good investment.

@wurlycorner: I don't think I have any photos because there is almost nothing worth seeing :) I have photos of the pulleys here if you want to take a look:

US eBay :) They are super cheap. You will have to replace two of the belts because two of three of the pulleys are of different size.

Give us a heads up so we can all do the same on what to get with the pulleys and size belts bud, looks like a massive improvement. Car is looking nice too!

Thanks. If I remember correctly the alternator belt is 5pk-1015. Not sure about the other belt as I wasn't there when they installed it. I can try to read the belt labels if you want.
