actually its smaller pulleys and yes you NEED those mods ... if you go any smaller its like turning your motor into a time bomb but yes first i would start out with the 180 thermostat and a ubend delete, then work your way to a pcm you should notice a little diff. with every mod

Here's a question for you......
I notice the tint and the clear corners. Is that your work?
If you just acquired the car and it has noticable modifications to it, I would have to question if there has already been work done under the hood, and to the suspension. No need to spend the time and money on something that has already been done for you.

i got the car about 5 months ago and yes it did come wit the tints and the clear corners. but there is nothing under the hood, my dad actually put a new motor it in for me cause when i baught the car he said the motor was good and then a month later it blew, so my dad just put a new one in. so now im going to mod the whole car.

Ok, so you got a new motor, but the Supercharger is still the same, so it may have work done, if not just a smaller pulley.
What about the PCM? You can't tell an aftermarket PCM unless you hook up a tuner.
What about the Down Pipe, Cat, and U-bend? That's all NOT part of the engine, that's the exhaust, and not a noticable Mod to the certified mechanic. All of these are mods that have been mentioned, but have nothing to do with a motor exchange.

I'm not saying that any of this has been done, but you might want to find a local member that can check this stuff out for you. You might find that a few things suggested have already been done.
