I put on CMDP and UDP at the same time, and yes I could tell a difference... try to buy used if possible.

Make sure MAKE SURE YOU DO IT RIGHT. Torque specs and new bolt.

charge motion delete plates -

I agree, just giving you the heads up that there's a special way to torque it. I think I THINK 90lbs back of half rotation then 3/4 quarter turn. You may have to buy a longer bolt to get the pulley started also. A new bolt is also required... PITA with radiator in the way and a 3 prong jaw puller.....

I think it's worth it.... No strain on AC like my 99. It was horrible at a red light.

I put BBK's on mine and really liked the results. It's a cheaper upgrade and worth the price.

I don't have them but think they are one of the cheaper mods to do but I think only like 7 hp increase if I remember right.
