underdrive pulley or ftra?
underdrive pulley or ftra? i got a couple hundred dollars to spend on my car and have two mods in mind.
1. asp underdrive pulley
2. fasttoys ram air kit
i will probably be getting a 160 thermostat with either but was wondering which mod should i do now and which i should wait and get later. i figure the pulley might be more noticeable but the ram air kit would be more simple to install. i would need new belts and crank bolts for the underdrive and i don't have a pulley puller so the pulley would cost more. whats you guys input what i should do first?

Depends on your plans for the car.
If you're planning on doing a cam swap later, do the FTRA now, and the UD pulley later. This is the case since it's a bit of a PITA to do the swap. Might as well only have to do it once.

thanks for all the good responses. i do not have any plans on camming the car which is why i wasn't sure on which mod to do first. i will probably be ordering the ftra here in a few days. ill let you guys know if the ftra was worth it.
