    About to put on my 3'' ZZP downpipe, autolite 104 plugs, gaterback belt and then people are saying "OH NOES!! YOU'LL BLOW UP!" well, here's the question. will i? i have a custom tune, which I can alter any time I would like, and I also have a K&N CAI system. certain places I hear it's ok, certain they are saying hell no. i have scanned for kr, and in 100 degree weather, at very peak, i have 2degrees, no where else though. and in cooler weather, i'm at zero. i am thinking of ordering rockers.. do i need to?

    If your not dropping pulley size then those mods should defiantly reduce your Kr to nothing. The plugs and the DP will show the greatest improvement.

    I am kind of stumped tho how you are getting Kr at this point, are you allready running a smaller pulley?

    Yea, the mods your getting ready to do are more or less supporting mods.

    It was almost 100 degrees outside, and it was only at like 5000rpm

    but i am going for it, tearing apart my car tomorrow i think. and then getting it tuned ASAP after that.

    It took the mods in my sig to get me to 0* with the stock pulley. Every car is different.

    Oh and to the OP, the downpipe will get rid of your KR no problem.

    Edit: Can't seem to get my sig working but here ya go

    Yea this is true, i get no Kr with my mods with stock pulley. Im dropping down to a 3.5 sometime this week and hoping for no Kr. Kind of a fantasy but i left some $ for a Down pipe, plog and colder plugs if [probably when] i need them.
