Right, heard back from gates and as they don't perceive a market in the US, they're not willing to do a batch in the US so I may be speaking to someone in the UK.

That's good to know. From what I understand it seems easier to get a reinforced one than a non reinforced one from the above post by Andy. That's why I suggested the kevlar option. All I'd need is a 150 teeth one and since they are scarce I'm happy to get 2

The AAN has its radiator well at the front with lots of cool air flow impacting it. I have never heard of a non-clogged AAN radiator failing to provide enough cooling power, even with horsepowers well above stock 230 PS, e.g. 380 PS and above. You are perfectly fine continuing to run a 29 tooth AAN water pump and 151 tooth cam belt on your AAN.

I have an ABY belt on my RS2 and I've thrashed the ball's off it with no problems whatsoever and that's what I'll be replacing it with.
I don't see any issue, the gear ratio remains the same.
In theory one pulley could be 100 miles away as long as there's no stretch the cam shaft would rotate at the same speed.1989 B3 2.0 3A 80 quattro... Budget 1.8T Project.
