| How much KR do you see now with the stock pulley? If none, I'd get an MPS w/ 3.5" SC pulley and see how it goes.
I would get the rockers before headers. You'll see bigger gains, and shouldn't need to tune much for them, and might be able to drop to 3.4" or better with a good tune, and without headers.
I was much more impressed with the rockers than most of my other mods because they added HP in the upper RPMs - right where we need it bad. It's like bolt-on VTEC for a pushrod V6 designed 50 years ago. _________________ '05 GTO 6.0L • 6-spd • 95k miles • 0-60: 4.8s • 16.9 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:26'95 Celica GT 2.2L • 5-spd • 165k miles • 0-60: yes'98 SC Riviera • 281k miles • 298 HP/370 TQ • 0-60: 5.79s • ET: 13.97 @ 99.28 • 4087 lb • 20.1 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:30

| the rockers and pulley will definitely give you the instant foot-to-pedal gratification whereas headers not so much | |
