even tho the companies claim up to 15hp from each of them u probably didnt gain half of that...cold air is better..pulleys wont feel much...all in all there basic mods and good add ons to other stuff down the road but dont expect a whole lot outta them..

+1, CAI and U/Ds are not going to make a noticble gain, you'll see them on the dyno, but they're not going to drastically improve your numbers.

You saw no gain because pulleys just free up parasitic drag and the car comes stock with a plastic CAI. You should have saved up for heads, or possibly a larger MAF and headers. Unfortunately, most bolt ons are a waste of money on a stock headed engine.

CAI willgain you around1hp, pulleys 2hp....so your not gonna feel much. I laugh now looking back when I put on a CAI and was like, "I don't feel any difference".[&:] I was expecting the gain you would feel from doing full exhaust...lol.
