You'll need etching primer, and some paint designed for plastic, for the Spark Plug cover.

And, why does it matter how much your intake, header, and exhaust produce? If it all adds up to 5 whp, you won't notice a difference regardless.

matt's right - again. no hp gains will be noticeable to a typical driver unless the gains are over 10HP (at the wheels)
