    I would agree fully with boogi3. Oh and try and do the installs yourself. The intake is easy. The header/ S pipe you might want to take to a shop if you dont have jack stands, tools, or experience.

    And about the throttle body spacer... it makes a cool noise, but its basically usless, not even a gain you will notice.

    on most of those mods you will need a profesional to install them but bdis3 is right on the CAI its very easy and that throttle body spacer is just for noise really much like a fart can lol

    so Why do they sell throttle body spacers then?? unless it goes with a new throttle body then it does something? so what kind of sound like a whistling or some garbage like that?

    pulleys dont "gain" hp, they "recover" hp being lost from the crank to the wheels. maybe 5hp if i remember. this conversation is definitely on this forum somewhere...
