No way am I changing the lower idler until I have a need to take off the motor mount. It'* behind it in S2 B'villes.
I swapped up the tensioner to 3.5".. looks pretty good and an easy swap when you are doing the pulley.

I know I have to change that pulley today on my car. I thought a 3.5 pulley on the tensioner would hit the mount ? How is the PCM relearning the pulley now?

And underdrive waterpump pulley hits the mount. A 3.5 fit great on the tensioner.
Today is pretty good.. you know the weather.. nice...cool...
Checked a couple things Rogue clued me in on.. awaiting a shipment from Intense.

Ahaaa
The old adjustable fuel pressure regulator trick
That'* what worked for me last couple of years. Raise the pressure by about 4-6 psi and that will kill your KR with a little bit of cool richness.
I have mine set at 58 psi. Stock was 52 psi max.
