    No, you will not see much of a performance gain from a set of flowies. You should save your money and buy a set of headers. Besides I haven't heard a GP that I liked the sound of the exhaust yet..

    So just buy a set of headers, you will get a much more performance and you should have gotten them before dropping pulleys.

    yeah I would buy a set of headers, you have many options to choose from. They are always going down in price

    If you post in the classifieds section I am sure you will find people who are looking for them. And I haven't bought mine yet, I am waiting on another member to install his and test his out because if they are good I will be picking them up because they are a lot cheaper than most.

    Well welcome to the site, and headers would be your best investment, at this point, have you had your car scanned for KR or anything with that pulley on it? it might be knocking like a SOB! not good lol

    Well I would put the stock pulley back on until you get headers because there isn't enough supporting mods, or buy them asap and install /scan scan scan scan and then tune tune tune

    Well it might not feel fast enough because its knocking so hard and pulling timing I really recommend putting the stock pulley back on. at least until you open the exhaust up.
