Default roller rocker question

I have a stock engine setup riht now and im lookin to buy somethin that will give me a little more hp thats not THAT expensive. I heard roller rockers were good. Im thinkinm about 1.6 but i have no idea were to get them, how to install them, or what they do. Do u need any other engine mods or a programer for the to work properly. If anyone could educate me on rockers and give me the best place to order them from that would be great.

If your stock, rockers would be something for later down the road. Start out with a CAI and the a Cat Back. Then move on to headers, gears, ....... the list goes on from there.
Try doing a search first. This has been covered many times before so there is already some good info on the subject out there.

Yeah I would do the full bolt ons. Headers with Y-pipe, port polish MAF, CAI, some gears, some NOS, and a tune. I'm sure you will be happy with the results
