I think all listed mods are worth it.

PS-Were you the guy that had a PH411 turbocharger awaiting install? If yes, what happened?

I don't think the pulley will work with any FI, so go with aluminum driveshaft or shorty headers.

They are worth it if you want a better sounding and flowing exhaust. They also net you a little power too. They will definitely be worth it for sam because he is getting a turbocharger in the future and could use the extra exhaust flow.
