Yessir, I bought a Gates Premium Powerline belt infused with Aramid (kevlar is a patented brand name and can only be used under license). I installed it yesterday and went for a ride. The only time my variator chattered (twice) was under hard acceleration from a dead stop. A stage 1 racing CVT kit is $249 + tax so that's next on the list. A stage 2 kit with Revena clutch is $538, but that's a little too rich for my blood.
