Message And I would personally never see one on my engine. The timing belt has some (very minor) stretch to it which is made up by the hydraulic tensioner.

That means either you have to install this with way too much static tension (high tension in the belt at low/steady rpm) or risk the slippage problem it's claiming to prevent at heavy acceleration and high rpm.

Stick with OEM
