Hey just ordered a 90mm idler from RPM. Do I need a different belt size, I'm assuming I don't but i really don't like to assume when it comes to my sweet darling Cobra. Also did anyone notice any HP and or TQ gains from going with the idler kit? Thanks fellas and fellets

90MM? That's the same size as stock isn't it? Or did you order an idler and bracket assembly? You want to create more belt wrap so why not go with the 100MM idler? I'd say you won't need a new belt because you aren't really changing much.

Here's a link to a list of belt sizes based on pulley/idler combinations from Cobra Bob's website.

My bad yeah I got the idler and bracket assembly so I have to say bye bye to my snout cover. It sits to the lower right of the blower pulley and supposedly creates more belt wrap.
