Not much.

You don't need larger fuel injectors for a stock motor.

I would only recommend the cam gears if you had cams. New spark plug wires won't do anything unless you need new ones, and in that case, OEM are the best.

I would just save your money up, like I said in your other post, for some worthwhile mods. Half of those are completely unnecessary.

Basic bolt-ons on an otherwise stock motor will not give you 45 hp gains even if they are the best quality out there. You would be lucky to pick up 10hp from those mods.

nope






save your money for cams, go ahead with the basic bolts IM TB header exhaust, then if you truly want real horsepower look into turbo or block and head work.
