ZZP vs MPx vs Turbo XS. I have a Turbo XS catback and the quality is top notch so I want to go with their DP but it's the most expensive so I'm considering ZZP and MPx. Which one is the best DP with GMS1 and, possibly, a custom tune in the future? thanks!

edit: I'm only considering a catted dp.

edit: I'm also considering a used CAI dp but I'm a little worried about it being used and I don't know how good they were so if anyone has any experience with it, please post!

Catless ones are pretty much all the same. Go catless with an angled or extended O2 sensor. If you have inspections in your state throw your OEM DP on for the inspection.

I didn't realize the ZZP one is about $80 cheaper than the Turbo XS one. I might have to consider it.

30K + on the CIA and no regrets. Rather pricey with the cat and y-pipe but A1 materials/workmanship. Never been inspected so can't comment on that. I did throw a P2096 shortly after install; cleared it/ tightened y-pipe bolts and it hasn't returned.

I was almost hoping Turbo XS would have more votes lol. I want to justify the extra cost to myself and I know their quality is up there but I guess ZZP is as good? anyone has any issues with the zzp dp? catted or catless?

The ZZP occasionally throws a code too. Search the forum.

Hahn catted does not for sure.

I bought a used one to check out. It is a total piece of crap. The flex on it was already starting to collapse after about 20k miles.
