Some googling and I found a article fromtwincam.org about the belt lengths. It seems that a little bit longer belt would do nicely with my oversized (165mm) pulley. Maybe a 5PK960? ๐

Have you done any 0-100 times yet :D? Would be interesting to see the difference with a before and after video! Today I finally did something to my AW11, I dyed the headliner and sunvisors black, it turned out really well! I’ll send ya some pics soon ๐
