    Yeah. I've noticed even with a stock bracket that overtightening can be a bad thing. I saw smoke come from one of my belts one time because it was too tight.

    eBay selling at it's best I can tell you stock Delorians and quite a bit of slugs so the Turbo is a super nice up-grade.

    I love being cheap. I'm at Firestone right now waiting for a free alignment.

    While waiting for Firestone to do my alignment I walked over to Lowes and bought a bag of black screws for $1.22 after tax. I hope to use two of these screws to fasten the black lip of my binnacle.
