I have one on my ATI D1. It works a hell of a lot better than the gates or dayco's I tried. With those two brands plus belt dressing the most boost I could get was 7psi out ot my 9psi pulley. With the gatorback I get 9psi with belt dressing and no slip. I use the belt dressing when I know it starting to slip a little or before I head to the track.
Autozones carry them if you have one in your area,
Hope this helps

Since you're in Toronto, go to your local Goodyear Auto Service Center. That's where I bought mine for my GTP. I had to order it, but they got it in next day for me.
