I drive 100miles a day for work on the E-way so it was calm driving in 5th mainly with fluctuation of throttle so I would never be at a constant speed. This SS/SC is just the daily driver. Even with the kit on I still drove it last night concervative just getting in to boost in higher gears. Figure by the end of the week I'll have about 1500miles on before the adjustable tensioner comes in. Then I'll start to really see the potential of this kit.

So how common is the belt slippage problem? Are most of you with the Intense kit having belt slippage? I'm getting the kit soon but not until I know how I'm gonna keep the belt from slipping.

I have a fix for the belt slippage on higher mileage cars. PM me.

i got the intense kit back when it first came out.. i have that along with k&n cold air intake and a TOG header... i spin threw secound now and chirp third... i use to race srt4s and in third we would be right next to each other.. along with my buddy with a grand prix gtp that runs like 13s.. now once my tires stop spinning i just pull on them by about 2 car lengths... and that is with still haveing wheel hoop and not getting traction and now with a slipping clutch so once i get my light weight fly wheel stage 3 clutch and the rest of my 3 inch catless exhoust i have a feeling i might be able to run about 12s on the track i am going to get it dynoed and tunned with the MAF translator hoping for very close to 300 if not HP never know... any ways i would say the kit is deffently worth it aspecialy sence it is plug and play now.... Intense did a great job with it

I think engine mounts, torque braces, or slicks should be bought before any substantial HP is added. You can have all the power in the world, but without traction its useless. Im probably going to buy torque braces for mine before I buy the stage kits. Theyre cheap, and effective for putting HP to the ground. God knows the stock SS/SC doesnt do anything but hop in first gear ( and in second during rainy conditions ). I couldnt imagine how much worse it would be @ higher HP. It would probably be like driving a jack hammer down the street. A hydraulics project gone AWOL!
