I've heard enough statements saying that the lighter crank pulley will do enough and the rest are unnecessary to trade up.

looking for the to point me in the right direction.

power gaines will be minimal and they are not ballanced nor do they abcorb harmmonic vibration, at sustained high rpms they could actually shorten the life fo your engine, this has been debated for years, not really worth doing imho, I say stick tot he basic's intake exhust ecu, if you need more, forced induction

This was talked about not too long ago. I think Kwik was the one who mentioned the harmonic vibration issue most recently.

There's plenty of better ways to spend the same money that will give you more power (and certainly fewer headaches in the long run).
