Kevlar Supercharger Belts

I've been in touch with the Gates Belt Co. and they can make a much better and stronger belt made out of kevlar and a stonger rubber compound. They will be practically indestructible! They have to call me back with the details and the minimum number of belts in an order.
We have a real problem because we must remove our SC to replace the belt and it's a real expensive pain in the ***!! If you're out on the freeway or on a trip and your belt shreds, you're screwed. I think this would be a very important item to develop! The minimum order is anywhere between 30-50 belts and they will cost 35-40% more than the regular ones.
I won't do this unless I get a group together, please let me hear if there is any interest . Please, no flames or other spam, this is serious business for those with superchargers, especially the ones with upgraded boost. From what I understand, if your cheapo plastic pulleys freeze up the belt should stay intact. Think about that!
