So I'm planning on buying this http://www.meganracingperformance.com/2008-2010-chevrolet-cobalt-turbo-cat-back-exhaust-inch-turbo-series-burnt-tip-megan-racing-mr-cbs-cc08t-bt-p-449338.html and a DP from zzp does anyone have this already so I can c how loud it is or how much gain it gives.I also read on some threads that the CEL comes on frequently when change how can I avoid this.oh and do u think it's a good idea or should I just get a dp not the catback

p.s sorry IM still learning so give me a break lol

 

Give zzp your money

 

realistically you are not going to gain anything with a catback exhaust unless you are making over 400hp, for a downpipe you can get them with an angled 02 bung so it wont throw a code. start with a catless downpipe,intake and tune.

 

People don't like Megan exhaust they said it was too loud and ricer sounding. I would stick with either zzp or borla. But you could always help a smaller business out and buy the zzp cat back. And if you go Catless or high flow get a "j-pipe" or Angled O2 sensor welded/screwed on to the downpipe

 

I just recently installed a hahn catted downpipe with a modern performance catback exhaust......sounds really good in my opinion......nice tone at idle and when you open it up it sounds great

 

my exhaust, just a muffler delete and nothing else.

 

Buy the down pipe and then get an exhaust shop to cut the muffler off your exhaust.

 

would I need to add chargepipe, map sensor, and intercooler (if so what's a good brand I don't want something that's cheap and junk in the long run) before my tune?

 

The cat back is expensive anyways lol I'll probably just cut the tip and put a burnt tip(I really like the look) and not into the ricer sound thank you

 

Yea so far I haven't heard anything bad about the dp

 

mines catted and the stock resonator is still on. Just a muffler delete and I get a lot of compliments on my tone lol.

 

I have ZZP
-downpipe
-3inch exhaust
-intercooler
-charge pipes
never had a problem with any of their products

 

have u dyno? If so what's your stats? Did u buy the kit for intercooler and charge pipes?

 

i have had my car on a dyno and it put down a meek 274whp on a dyno dynamics but that was a larger compressor wheel k04 turbo, i bought the hot side charge pipe and the intercooler because it was cheaper then the kit.

 

I've read people getting that same bolt ons with tune getting 340+

 

don't get excited about numbers, different dyno's will produce different HP numbers and more then likely they would be running e47/e85 to get those numbers or a very very happy dyno

 

Yea they where lol

 

Hey Nathan I was wondering if this is the right intercooler for my stock 08 as tc.

i am going to have patience and hope your not trolling here
-go to ZZP's website click on the ecotec platform
-LNF is the engine in your ss/tc
-read the description and understand what cars the product you are looking at will fit
-pull out your wallet
-wait for parts to arrive

 

People talk bad about Megan because of the sound, which I can agree with. I owned one, but the quality and fit ament was extremely good for the price. Flanges beat slip fit all day in my book. But others may disagree
