May want to consider the 5th injector kit from ZZP. Not that it's a necessity, but you gotta figure with the bigger turbo you're gonna need quite a bit more fuel.

Also, I've never heard any results about the MRZ pulley.

Other than that, looks real good!
You should be fine with stock pistons/rods with the ZFR.

rods only have 40k miles on them so didnt feel that was really needed riht now. As far as fueling I had not really thought about that. My currents mods are catless dp, devils own meth injetions, gms1, and k&n sri.

If you don't plan on pushing the Turbo to the limit then no fueling mods are needed. I mad 442whp on a mustang dyno and that was literally at the absolute Max of the fuel system.

I also think it would be wise to do one step colder plugs and use a stock crank pulley.

If you don't have a catback you will need it most likely. Also I hope your running a tune with the meth and such.....that's the other thing you will need is a good tune.

ahh didn't mention that i do have step colder spark plugs.

I did use the mpx lightweight pulley for some time and did really enjoy that one but modern doesn't make it any more. I do not plan on pushing the turbo to its limits as far as fueling goes. I also still have stock down pipe just curious as to why you recommend it over catless

You should definitely upgrade to a catback, or at least a catless dp. You're gonna want that better flow with pushing the turbo to it's limits

For 450hp this is a waste of money. Use your stock one it will be fine
