Nice car, if you live in the mid-atlantic then you don't need more power, the streets are covered in snow. Better off spending the money on chains and snow tires.
ASP offers a solid alloy pulley with steel hub for $300 and a factory pulley with a steel ring for $200 (+ your factory pulley). The steel ring is pressed and welded on and then rebalanced. Of course the alloy pulley will provide the best yields but some are afraid that the damper will dampen their fun so they get the other kind. After you buy the pulley you'll need a kit from Linh (619.972.4114) to relocate the MAS, 4 cooler spark plugs, a belt, and a fuel pressure regulator, I think he charges about $350 for this kit and he can order the ASP pulley for you. Also get an ITG or K&N filter, I've been getting a consistant 3-4HP in my testing on multiple cars.
