I'm leaning now towards buying a set of heads, have anyone heard
anything about AEROheads, and should I go with thumper or powerheads.
With my combo what else would i need to just get it up and running?

How much are you looking to spend, The Avenger heads are really good, for 1200, they outflow the tfs twisted wedge heads, have great hardware out of the box, and have some different features.

I guess i'm going to have to stop being cheap,
because i seen the $400 price on the ported e7s
from aeroheads and $600 price from powerheards
it look soO gooood. I would hate to buy them and my car don't feel any faster. any comments on the
seat of pants feel and decision making, also i can only spend now $1200 per my WIFE

The heads are not the heart of an engine, the camshaft is.
Pick your goal for power first, talk to some camshaft experts and pick your camshaft FIRST, then which complementing port size you need will tell you what your contenders for heads will be. Too many people work this process backwards, parts ALL need to work harmoniously together. If not, potential gains turn into realistic losses.
