as above.

changing the belt is a fairly simple job anyway so why not do it ya self?
just make sure if you do it or a garage, that a full kit is fitted not just a belt

i think toqueew of the devil would prob be the better one to go to, the way i hear it, the top guy at power engineering fucked off and set up torque of the devil, loads of people have used it and always have good things to say, and i think there only a few miles away from power engineering in hayes, about 4 miles from where i used to live lol.

if you want something closer, ask in general mate, im sure your get a lot of response.


and cheers fella, click the frst link, will take you to my rebuild thread on FT
