stage 2

Just dropped my car off for the stage 2 install. $180! i thought it was a pretty good deal. I also have the 2.9" pulley at home that i'm going to put on. Can't wait to get it back and drive it!

Make sure they give you the installation tool back and call the dealership immediately and make sure they dont put loc-tite on the bolts! Youre gonna love it!

i asked them not to put loctite on them and he said it is required, but he is going to see if blue is acceptable

As soon as you get the car back break the bolts lose and clean off the loctite. It will save you many headaches.

Loctite isn't the end of the world. Just get a decent soldering iron and hold it on the head of the bolts for a couple minutes each and take them out while they're hot.

I just got my custom 2.93" pulley from Nate, I need to install it but it sounds like the bolts are going to be hard. Will this work, have you tried it. Also how hard is the belt going to be to take off and put back on?

Thanks.
