Original T belt lasted 126K. Just had the new one done. My mechanic said the OEM belt "had chuncks missing" I bought the car useda little overa year ago and was unable to track down any service records and/or owners. FYI: the T-belt kit came from ECS tuning and my mechanic said the gaskets were poor quality so he purchased ORM gaskets.

OEM gaskets not "OPM gaskets"

Turbo's- The lag is there to give V8's a chance.

Holy hell, I thought my 90k was impressive. Thats pretty solid.
