I added the delete plates with the UD pulleys and exhaust so I cant really tell how much they did... but they are a complimenting mod...

If they only give you between 2-5 hp, why even bother?? Unless you're getting a turbo or a centri, I wouldn't worry about them. +1 to them being useless if you get a roots or a TS.

why bother? because its 5 HP for only $100. every pony counts which is why there will always be someone with a few of those "useless" mods that "only" give you 2 HP here 2 HP there but they end up walking you because you didnt do those "useless" mods...

Obviously you have no need for them, but people with Vortec, Paxton, or Prochargers sure can use them.

you pretty close to being correct buddy, i have done almost all mods to this car, trust me, the only way these stupid things would even be worth it, would be if someone was going with a turbo or centri type blower and even then i would say save your money. these things are just another way for some company to take your money. do you know what exactlywhat they do, if you did then in theary these moght be worth but in the end for a few ponies hell no. the doolor to hp ratio is so horrible on these cars why waste it on a useless mod
