Well I vote get the 60 pounders with 2.6 pulley and all the matching stuff.. But with that being said. You are going to want to get the H/E. So you should combine those two. Then after that I vote coilovers.. You basically have the same stuff done as I do and that's how I plan on doin it.... home made stage kits with H/E and meth kit. After that drop it on coils.

I voted H/E and other because u should also get the dual pass and opt b. If u are doing one u might as well do them all. Look in the FS section for a week or 2 to ****** up some nice new/used parts.

unless you get water/meth dont get a 2.6..but if you just get water/meth and a 2.6 pulley on 60lbrs youl see 300 to 310 somewhere in there..or even a 2.7 on 60 with meth will get u darn close..aslong as you got the supporting mods(h/d/e/i)...but i would not run the 2.6 without meth inj IMO

yes..zzperformance as well as nates pullies will not need to be machined to fit..im not sure about any others...there are many links to the details of meth describing what it does but it essentially lowers your iat temps from the meth and the water actually doesnt evaperate until in the cylnders and cools the engine..ohh and your octane goes up to about 108 or something allowing you to mess with the timing
