why would u get itr cam gears? Pulleys will get you maybe 1 hp to the wheels but probably a fraction of a hp in real life. The only benefit they MIGHT have is on a moderately modified motor

Stock ITR cam gears will do nothing for your car... They're no different than any other stock b-series cam gears...

Don't waste your money on pulleys... You'll only end up putting more stress on your bearings, rod bolts, crank etc... There's nothing on aftermarket pulleys to absorb the vibrations...

the ONLY pully i would EVER even think about is a CTR (lightest oem pulley) but even then, you arent gonna see much of a gain. and ITR cam gears? i hope you mean cams

confused...first you were gonna get itr cam gears...now valve springs/retainers?

Both of those mods are pointless because you'll get no power from them. Upgrade with itr cams, then you can do valve springs and retainers, but for cam gears, get aftermarket ones like skunk2/aem/etc.

I don't see why some lightweight retainers would help him out just a bit. Taking weight out of anything moveable in your motor will 'free up' lost horsepower. Of course, the gains will be very little and hardly noticeable.

Get rid of your A/C and Power steering...that will free up some power!!!
