The tensioner adjustment rod needs alot of modification and there is some shimming required, and the J30 idler requires some grinding and a little drilling as well, and yes I know my belt is misaligned, my bracket already needed extensive modifying just to get where it is and it needs a little more still, once I work that out I'm going to go ahead and put the blue racing belt on there. Don't mind the rubber shards in pic 2, that's from a separate incident.

Kudos for doing something different, but the underlined sentence doesn't invoke too much confidence/appeal in your approach IMO. No offense, but why are you're trying to re invent the wheel when there are other proven parts that can be utilized... Your approach does not seem ".....the way to do it" IMO.
Besides, there's nothing wrong with Stillen's original design/parts.

Years later and tons of boost, STILL no problems.
