Default Anyone running an ATI 917278 Super Damper on CTS-V?

Is anyone running an ATI 917278 Super Damper (10% underdrive) on their V?

If so, can you advise on the belts along with part numbers for the main and a/c?

Tried searching all over and found some belts for the Corvette but then I also read something that the V accessories are routed differently so they may require different belts.

I only have ~30 miles on it. I didn't notice anything positive or negative though. Just extra peace of mind I guess!

Goodyear 4040405 is the A/C belt

Goodyear 4060785 is the main belt.

Are those stock length, or slightly shorter?

Slightly shorter. I am not running them yet, but I called ATI directly to confirm.

i have an ATI, but not underdrive as i feel like it's a totally useless thing to have.

it's a good unit, but totally overpriced. if you're not buying a blem off ebay then you should be just buying a powerbond or another cheaper replacement besides OEM.

I have the 10% under drive. Im not the kinda guy who believes everything. But i will say, initial impressions after install were great! Car felt smooth n ran great. I chalk it up to the original one was going bad for alil while b4 it shyt the bed. But there was defly a noticeable throttle response. Even the clutch felt smoother starting off if that makes sense. I called my engine builder n he said he s not surprised, he recommended the 10% UD when everyone else said "not worth it"
