I have a few questions about:

1.) Under drive pullies.....
Do they add any hp?
Worth the money?

2.) Mil Eliminators.....
Do i really need them if i get a or h pipe?
Do anythign besides trick the computer to shut off the check engine light?

3.) IRS Brushings......
What do they do?
Worth the money?

4.) Timming adjustor
What does it do?
Worth the money?

I have searched the search and found a lot of topics on all of this but i can not get any clear answers all i see to come up with is the people that have this stuff say it is worth it and the peopel that don't say it is not. I also could not find any answers on what this stuff does just peopel looking to buy them. thanks.

Alright real quick,

1. No, not worth it, only a dyno can "tell" a difference. Maybe worth 1/100th @ the track. Ford optimized the ratios pretty good the first time around.

2. Yes, if you ditch the cats and no, only trick the computer.

3. Stiffen the rear up, only if you have to and not worth the work and $, again, unless you have to.

4. Lets you set the base timing. 10 degrees is stock. +/- 10 degrees. Yes it's worth the money for a couple extra hp and control over you car.
