Best value for Intake/Header/Exhaust Combo?
Finally feeling the need to mod after 2 1/2 years.
What's the best combo that produces the most linear improvements in power?
I'm looking for more mid-range gusto!

Short Ram Intake, 4 to 2 to 1 Header, light weight pulley, and a 2" axle back.
There are a million companies to choose from for these mods. Depends on who you like and how much money you have to spend..

Hi currently the setup I have on my engine is the package I can offer you:
Fujita Short ram intake - hands down the most responsive intake on the market for the xB. It is completely away from the engine and gets air from a cool source $160 plus shipping
DME header - new to the market, but very high quality, i can email you pics if you would like. I am currently running this on my company vehicle and it's very nice. $269 plus shipping
DME exhaust - This one is axle back but very nice as well. same superior quality like my header $299 plus shipping
Pulley - get the Agency Power pulley. It's probably hands down the biggest difference you will feel on your vehicle.

I saw the DME stuff at SEMA and was very excited to see a new player in the market. The only issue I had with their stuff was the fact that the runners looked so dang small on the headers!
The quality did look good in person though. Lot of products headed are way if they all make it to production.
For reference... Here are a couple pix I snapped at SEMA...


And for comparison...
Stock - Strup - MMW / Weapon R

MMW / Weapon R - Strup - Stock

It could be just me, but the runners look significantly larger on the Strup and MMW headers. You can look at the collector for reference. They are all the same size.
Oh, and a shot of the axle-back from DME for good measure...

I absolutely agree with the Fujita short ram though.
