Better power producing combo?

1 3/4th ZZP Mid length Header
3" Catless DP
Stock Catback

OR

ZZP 3" Catless DP
Monza 2.5" Catback

Which one is going to produce more power? I'm guessing the first one but i want to make sure before i order.

I've heard that this header likes to leak at the collector. Any truth to that?

490 for just the header vs 330 for the header and DP. No thanks. JBP is a complete ripoff

Whats the best size pulley to combo with this exhaust? I'm looking at going with a 2.8", 60lbers and a ZZP PCM. Anything else needed?

Personally I would stay away from the ZZP PCM. No offense to them but it is always worth getting a custom tune.
