Those brackets won't affect your power numbers, did you check the dealer for the brackets?

Re: what is this???

i'll take their word for it since they dont have one on, but isnt it possible that the one bolt holding the alternator on on the bottom side could come loose? causing it to tilt and lose tension in the belt (although i guess that is what the tensioner pulley is for) couldn't be more than a few bucks from a dealer to be on the safe side
