Re: Performance Timing Belts
Coming from the DSM backround and currently owning a DSM (racecar) and Evo 8 (daily driver) I would NEVER use a Greddy, HKS, Cosworth, or Gates belt.
All of these (and i might be mistaken) are carbon/kevlar or just kevlar belts that dont promote natural stretching under heat cycles and time in general. In simpler terms they dont stretch a few mm like a normal belt should and will most likely SNAP. Most of these are RACE belts and when used in this type of application are changed out very often. On a normal daily driven car I would always go with OEM.
