ZZP vs MPx Exhaust

Hey everyone,

I just got a s*!t load of overtime this week and I'm looking at getting a new exhaust system for my 2009 LNF.

As that title implies, I'm looking at ZZP and MPx.

I want a high flow cat & exhaust needs res & muffler.

I've heard good things about both, and I was wondering if the ZZP setup is really worth the extra $100 they charge for theirs. I don't wanna sound like a cheap ass, but I don't wanna pay more for something that isn't worth the "more".

Any advice is awesome.

I like the sound of the MPX over the ZZP... They are both not obnoxiously loud... I feel as if the LNF is twice as quite then the LSJ (Comparing both with aftermarket exhausts) but on the outside it sounds so tone and so nice and when you get on it you know you have something there.. The ZZP one doesn't sound bad at all... Just not as clean to me. (imo) I'm going to get the MPX but the cat-back exhaust is the last bolt-on to worrie about I also think of the ZZP exhaust as the same as the Magnaflow exhaust... Both 3in and both have 304 Stainless steel and both have the Magnaflow muffler lol. Just the Magnaflow your paying for name.... extra 200 dollers lol.

Youtube magic my friend.. Sound clips!


What downpipe do you have??

High-flow cat, res, and muffler.....that's too much

I had the ZZP catback without res or cat, just the muffler and loved the sound

Awesome quality, If I had to do it all over I would have chose their muffler delete with the res and no cat.....

MPX is awesome quality aswell and their exhaust sounds good too

No matter which one you pick you can't go wrong

Exactly! What he said ^^^^^^^^... Its 3in and a muffler... It is always better then stock.. Your basically picking sound when it comes to a exhaust for a turbo car when you are choosing between brands.

You wouldn't happen to want to trade rims and go back to silver would you?

ZZP is always worth the price. MPx has a nice cat-back which is well worth the price.

Personally I say wait for a used cat-back to pop up in the classifieds. Hahn has a good quality cat-back as well, and it sounds pretty damn good too.
