I felt no difference really with intake at all, just feels slower in the low end, and only pulls in higher speeds that I drive little to none.

If you feel a big difference with an intake, that is your butt dyno being fooled by the noise it makes. There is practically zero gain with an intake (Even with exhaust). Wait till you get good and used to it and take it back off... you wont feel a bit of difference.

You will get a very small gain from the exhaust, and you will notice a tini tiny difference in rev quickness with a pulley. You are very minimally affecting rotational inertia with a pulley swap due to the small diameter. A flywheel will produce a much more pronounced effect in this area (and is about a million times better for your engine, but you go find all the arguments on that one yourself). Niether add any real hp since they have no effect at steady state rpm, only during acceleration and decelleration (changes in rpm are the only thing affected by rotational inertia, not actual hp), but they will effect accleration a bit... but do make the car easier to slow down since you remove inertia.

Now, if you bought an entire underdrive pulley set, you change the ratio between the crank and accessories, which will help a tiny bit as well (but I wouldnt do it if you are drawing any significant power from the electrical system).

i been thinking about ordering a header, but i dont know how safe it is, i know dealer has to prove header was the cause of something going wrong( or with anyother aftermarket part), but still i think a header will be more likely to mess something up...
i been trying to look into this, but i dont know if i want to or not

Get the monster motor works headers. It wont mess your car up at all and is the best set for increase in power on the market now. If you really want to make sure that nuthing is going to happen get your car tuned after you put them on. My suggestion is save a little more and go boost!!

I think you will def love the new items and will not get enough of driving your car. So make sure you free up alot of time to devote to your car.
