Hi Danny, First off Welcome to NAM. For me, my first mod was the CAI too, then a Alta 17% pulley too, and it really does worth the best bang for the buck. just make sure you have colder sparkplugs for them since it does create more heat spinning the S/C

yeah thats more than enough! ha
When I got my pulley i just got a new belt and colder plugs. so your set!
I think the stock coil is fine.. but I went with the MSD coild because its red... ha
anyway your well on your way. And be careful.. it gets addictive.

The CAI will allow a better air flow into the engine,the pulley will allow it spool up quicker and now you need a better exhaust to expell it out the other end.You'll need to use the search feature on headers and catbacks as everybody's opinion and experiences are different on this,but you'll find a lot of good useful information there and many knowledgable people on here willing to help.BTW, welcome to NAM!

try to post some pics up of your car. With used MINIs its very rare that you find one 100% stock.... its always fun to play the "whats stock, whats not" game.
