You have a 98 SE. You don't have a */C, don't need a pulley.

Well in that case, before you do the pulley, MAKE SURE YOU GET RID OF THE U-BEND!

And do the intake and t-stat too. You might wanna look for a 3" downpipe on CGP. It will take care of the u-bend, as well as getting rid of the restrictive downpipe.

The first mod I would do is to take the supercharged badge off the trunk... Sleepers are always fun, and although its already a sleeper, taking the supercharged badge off would make it even more so.

Then a pulley, u-bend, PCM in that order. After that, come back for more questions.
