Well I bought a new belt and the Steeda Tensioner with a oem 90mm tensioner pully. All belt squeek is officially gone now. My oe Gates belt was frayed and a little streched and all I can say to every whipple guy out there is to buy a few extra belts and save your money. The thump__rrr was too much coin for me to replace in a year or so when I buy my new motor and turbo combo. Napa is the only place I could find locally to get the
K061247 Gates belt so I'd recommend any of you whipple guys to buy an extra if you can because right now they are a major PITA to run down. Whipple wants $80+ for a $42 belt

They will have to special order it from Gates. Gates hasn't updated their system yet so You will have to tell them that the K061247 is in their Kentucky plant if your napa rep has to call Gates for the belt. This is a major pita
