I am running out of mods to do to my mustang. (besides a power adder that costs $4000, headers where I have to raise my engine, & my suspension which is coming in the mail. I was wondering "are pullies really worth it?")

well if your getting a supercharger anytime soon pullies will be pointless
If you arent, then why not?

trust me if I didn't live in CA I would buy a turbo instead of a sc. I am just gonna wait for the prices to drop like $1200 in about 3 years. Then the people that have the 05's will be getting bent over for them. Do you think I could take off a tenth in the quarter with them? Also what brand?

they are worth it as far as a bolt on goes... if you upgrade to a SC it will hurt you though.

As has been mentioned - if your heading towards a SC then do not bother with the pullies 
However, if you do decide to get a set, stay with a set that has the harmonic balancer built into them (like the Steedas), stay away from the piggy-back style - you will have headaches with them.
Have fun

How much for the pullies? I will get them. I am waiting for the superchargers to drop in price.

Pulleys are a nice little mod that is not that expensive. But like mentioned above make sure they are not piggyback style. Steeda makes one as does March. But be careful if you order from March. They also have pulleys that are piggybacked. Marchs look killer in the polished pieces.
And if you do get the Vortech for your car you are going to need a tune. The Predator will not be able to do the job for you.

Underdrive pullies are worth it as long as you dont buy into the 15 HP gain. You will see about 4 to 8 HP which for a 94-98 is a nice amount of gain for 70-80 bucks For 99= they tend to be about double the price but then again at $20 a HP that is not to bad
I would look for the cheapest price I really dont think one is really better than the other. I have MAC UDP's and could not be happier
