Thats a good price for an ASP, and you cant get a better brand really. If you've done everything else, go for it. If not, wait til you install a camshaft, and get all the work down there done at once. Its worth the 10whp either way, though.
Just do the underdrive pulley, there's one other you can swap out, i think the Alternator pulley. But I would reccomend against that one, a little superfluous and it reduces how well the alternator charges the battery.
