I would only recommend cam gears. And I would only recommend those if you are willing to book some dyno time to get them tuned. If you have a lot of mods that would benefit from them, go for it, but otherwise, save your money for something useful for your setup.

Why not cams?

All the things you listed are little crappy bolt-ons that will net you minimal gains, if any at all.

Money = power.

Without money, you shouldn't even be modding. Save your money for gas or something useful. Don't blow it on useless shit like pulleys and cam gears when you don't need it.

I am just saying that modding just to buy more useless shiney parts isn't a good idea. Do some research, save up your money, and modify when you are ready, educated, and financially responsible to do so. For now, just keep the car well maintained so that when you are ready to do some serious mods, the car will be in good shape.
