People with ZZP Upper Pipe

Hello there

After my disappointment with the Hahn CP im looking at the ZZP Upper Pipe

Has anyone ordered Couplers so you don't have to modify your Stock CP?

Where would i get such couplers?

Thanks

I thought I heard sombody say that they were gonna come out with some so people wouldn't have to cut up there 2 plastic rings

It's not as bad as everybody makes it seem, if you want to put it back to stock just use the t-bolt clamps, the GM techs aren't that smart

We should have replacement couplers within a week or two.

No concerns with this pipe contacting the hood?

Do the new couplers also have a Clamp option?

Can you tell me the clamp sizes needed to install your pipe?

Awesome news.

Stock couplers are good for the stock turbo, but I am a little iffy with a swap

It will never hit the hood, it bolts to the valve cover to prevent movement.

Best hotside on the market IMO because this and the fact you don't have to remove it to change the plugs

never considered this! i was always concerned with the oil cap ... don't know why i didnt think of that! when they get the replacement elbows Ill have to pick up one of these. I want to keep all my stock parts for dealer visits as im sure most do as well.

Is there a step down going into the turbo? Would that be a 2 inch Clamp?

Just wanna be sure

ZZP would your couplers be offered with clamps also, i bought a used ZZP CP but it didnt come with clamps

The factory setup has 2 T-bolt clamps and 2 plastic clamps. We include 2 T-bolt clamps to replace the plastic clamps. If you run our replacement silicone couplers, you can still use 2 factory T-bolt clamps and 2 clamps from us.

Awesome glad to know

Now is it just for the top of the Upper CP (the elbow) or is it for the bottom of the Upper CP too?

Are they the same size or are they gonna be slightly bigger?

can you guys get better pics on your 3" exhaust? the two are not very helpful to see what the whole set up looks like.

Yes, there will be a drop-down selection to add them to a charge tube order.
