Op asked for opinions those are mine. Go with pulleys if u like its ur car, but i always stay away from them[/QUOTE Pretty sure that's one of the purposes of a pulley is to improve throttle response since your moving something much lighter your wasting less power thus improveing mpg so everything you've "heard " about is not so accurate so like I said there's a tread just on pulleys for our cars proving that on modern cars like ours a light weight pulley if a great mod with lil to no side affects
Yup i understand all that but like i said, thats ur opinion, what i wrote was mine. No time search for indep dynos #'s right now, maybe ill do that later.

& a tune would only be worth it if you had a fully bolt on n/a or f/i car running at stock tune
Im pretty sure he meant in general, not everyone knows the diff now a days
