    So I just bought a set of ZZP headers and 3" dp, I currently see 5-6* of kr with my current mods, can I expect to see that disappear and possibly drop pulley size?

    It's possible but every engine behaves differently.. So throw them on and scan and go from there... Don't go in expecting to sure all of your KR or you may be disappointed.

    Any big difference between ZZP or Intense for pulleys, besides ZZP having 8 rib.

    Just going to your mods and 2.5" catless DP got rid of all my KR. I'm on the fence of a pulley swap or just drive it.

    I love the...

    "My car knocks"

    "Can't wait to drop a pulley"

    Threads.

    Get the headers, re-tune it.

    Smaller pulley doesn't always mean it's faster.

    how are those headers? you have any issues installing them or any leaks? and also does it come with new gaskets and possible new hardware?

    Reuse the stock manifold gaskets and buy a Felpro gasket for the catback.
