Okay...I have a cold air intake, msd ignition, 10.3 plug wires, msd blaster pack, and a full exhaust. I am trying to decide on what to buy next. My girlfriend wants to buy me something, would it be better to get cam gear or pulleys???

Cam gears won't do much unless you replace the cam shafts at the same time. You could do pulleys, or header. Depending on how much your gf wants to spend

yea u should go for headers..........depends on her budget

02-09-2003, 10:32 AM

02-09-2003, 10:33 AM

Depending on the pulleys you replace. The AEM Power Pulley set which does the alt. pulley and ps pulley, I think I've heard 2-4whp. I was told by a shop owner on my car, Unorthodox claims 10hp on their crank pulley.

well i found a matrix under drive pulley set for $89 is that a good price and what does that replace....

$89 seems like a good price for that full set but I've never heard of Matrix before. I believe the under drive pulley set consists of ps, alt and crank pulley.

they sell them at street beat customs...seems like a good deal...what about an fpr?? or does that not help unless you replace the injectors and fuel lines and everything??

a96710 · 02-09-2003, 02:44 PM

I wouldn't get an fpr unless you're runnin FI
