Well, if you buy it new, say from one of the vendors, it'll come w/ the Z-tube, like Beebo said. However, the Popcharger itself is just an extremely large cone filter with a heatshield. So if you get the popcharger, you'll want to get the z-tube

I was thinking the same coming from hondas where pulleys are the **** lol but after reading on them i'm hesitating now. From what i hear it's not really "proven" that pulleys do anything for us.. maybe a couple HP but not nearly enuff to be worth 300+.. I'd say Spacer Asap unless u already got it.. apparently it's a sweet spot mod for the G best bang for the bug for a bolt on from what i read. just type in pulleys should give u a couple threads .. if anyone knows anything in detail about pulleys plz enlighten me as well.

I'd say go for the spacer next, and then look into some sway bars. I think you can probably get both for less than what it would cost you purchase and install the underdrive pulleys. That's just my 2 cents. Have fun.

get rid of he 20"'s then lol. Go for exhaust, plenum spacer, high flow cats, coilovers if you get 19"'s or 18"'s, swaybars, headers if you aren't going turbo, and since you have a 5AT get a valve body upgrade and an LSD. This all should keep you busy for a while.

You mean underdrive pulleys. These wont give you any power gains but they will increase the response. Also, these will take a while to install, so I would suggest holding off on these until you go FI.

do some searching and you will find all of the other answers you want.

The plenum spacer is one of the easiest mods you can do. Even with little to no mechanical knowledge you should be able to accomplish it fairly easily.
