Good un Dave, how did you set the tension of the belt?

:D Great news! glad you got it sorted!

No worries :D

Is the noise a whistle turbo kinda noise? check your exhaust for holes, i have mine straight through to the back box and i can hear my turbo whistle. 20mph in 4th are you mad? try 20mph in 3rd see if that makes any improvements :)
