Default Steeda Billet Charge Motion Plates ?

My car is basically stock except for a CAI and tune. It will probabbly stay that way except for gears. I can get a set of Steeda Billet Charge Motion Plates for $150. Would it be worth it in my application to do this?

They are on my to do list of mods, and if I remember correctly that is about 1/2 price for the Billet ones. Are they new or used?

That's a very good price. They are better than the economy plates since the ports are bigger and match up better with the engine.

Turns out he was trying to pass off the economy plates. Had the wrong pics and description in the add. Guess he thought he was going to get a buyer who wanted them shipped and wouldnt know till it was to late.

Not that the economy plates are bad but you can get them from a vendor for that price.

So would you say it is worth the extra cost to get the Bilet vs the Economy plates?

For forced induction guys, yes. For naturally aspirated, no.
