Default is this a good kit?

i want to add some hp to my new v6 and i found this kit and i would like to have some advice. And if it is good which tuner should i get?

there is the link http://www.rpmoutlet.com/newv6m.htm it is the $499.95 one

i also plan on getting a cai, cat back exaust, and throttle body spacer (maybe headers some foums say there is no hp gain)

I would look around and see what other manufacturers make pulleys for your car. That kit doesn't have an alternator pulley for some reason. A set of pulleys would be a great way to free up some power for you. You just have to be careful with which set you purchase. Stay away from any piggyback style that require you to mount some sort of adaptor to the original pulley. Those types break easily.

the crank pulley is good, I've had mine for 3 years.

Forget abou the throttle body spacer -it does nothing.

The CAI, you're going to have to determine if you want show or go.

For go -pick up a plastic one from tunableinduction.com, JLT, or K&N.

The throttle body, if it's 65mm will do you some good on a stock engine, if you plan on a cam or power adder, you'll need a 70mm and have it port matched.

If you do a lot of bumper to bumper driving I wouldn't take the chance on the water pump pulley.

I've never had a problem with them. Everything showed up 2 days after my order.

I used the telephone to place the order, though. Always use the telephone and talk to someone who has access to inventory, and can answer questions . ..

the BBK and other netal CAIs develop heat sink, and don't do any better than a drop in filter once the engine bay warms. So, there is a huge difference between the plastic and metal CAIs on a day to day basis. closer to 5-7 hp, depending on ambient temperature. If the temp is around 60-70 degrees, there's not much difference between the metal and plastic CAIs, but from 80s-90s+ there is a huge difference in performance.

wow, its almost like donks just got his **** ruined or something. not like coyote has been around these forums for all eternity and knows waht he's talking about though right?

seriously though, what is the point of a CAI if you buy it in a material that just heats the air back up?
