That's pretty much the best option you can get. Pulleys make a difference too, especially on modded cars!

Any clue which pulley is best? I have the 7AT if it makes any difference. Was thinking about doing 4.08 gears, but it would be a little expensive for me with a 7AT and wouldn't be good for DD.

I know that Triple's runs NST pulleys and has had great results. He has the 7AT as well and his Z puts down impressive numbers on the dyno. If I were to do pulleys personally, I would go for the NST pulleys. They allow the engine to rev more quickly and frees up some power as well, a win win in my book!

Yeah ive been doing my reserach as well and also have noticed that the Stillen Headers arent worth it. I already have the FI Exhuast/ HFCs /G3 Intakes combo and im cool with it. Problably get a tune then settle down and save money lol

Also, any idea of how long the install time is? Would help me figure out how much it might cost to install it.

Edit: After doing some more research it seems that the gains are not worth the time/cost for the Stillen headers. Seems to be only 2-3 whp gain up top and actually lose some TQ.

I always try to make some time to go to the meets but then something always come up.

I will def. try to go one time tho!

It's a lot of fun and you will get to meet a lot of cool people. Come out whenever you have time, we meet every week.

Awesome! They are definitely on my list of mods to get now

I have the NST Pulleys right now, just waiting for the back-ordered belt to come in to schedule an install.
