No don't go that route. I'd get intake, stat, plugs, headers, then a pulley.

heres the order I went. All these mods were installed withing 2 weeks of each other:
thermo, downpipe, wizair, pcm, plugs
going to plog then 3.6 pulley next. I'm guessing this is going to put me at a 13.9-14.1.

04compG what are you running right now?
10-16-2008
Not sure. I'm ordering the plog and 3.6 pulley right when I get back from Pennsylvania at the end of next week. Someone on the other boards had an 04 compg with my current mods (i think he had AL104 plugs though) plus the plog and 3.6. The car ran a best of 13.9 just a few days ago. It also had a run of 14.
i'm going to try to make it to the local strip once I get the pulley and plog on. I want my car to run consistant high 13's also so I might have to think of another mod or two to do after the pulley and plog, depending on what my times are. I think its a good idea to get rockers and springs if you are going to drop to a 3.5" pulley on the GenV and that costs a lot of $$$ so I want to avoid that and still get consistent high 13's using only new and what I think are the best parts ( which of course always cost the most money).

I agree with said suggestion
Intake, headers, tstat, plugs, ect.
Don't waste your time with plogs and dp's. Headers are one of the biggest mods for gp's period. Yeah pacesetters suck to put on (i didn't have a problem...) but if you order them from zzp they take care of all the problem area's and you can get the cheap non-coated ones and use header wrap to conceal the uglyness.
but, but, but..... won't they crack? awwww horse ****. I've had mine wrapped since i got them and i know i get higher egt's than anyone else around when i'm running my 100shot and they haven't cracked. The ceramic coating blows balls and looks like **** in a year or so anyways. Again if you can't spend the money on headers just save up until you can afford them, don't waste your money on a plog and dp unless you're happy running high 13's low 14'sI know i'm sure the hell not. Just my .02 take it as it is.

Yea, if you are content with the Pacesetters get those instead of the Plog/dp combo. The pacesetters are made out of mild steel though and theres a reason they are substantially cheaper than the competition. I would have wanted the ZZP or SLP headers and your looking at $1,000 + install.
