It was like $600 with the parts , install, tuning, and dyno pulls.
did they say what was causing the KR. I got the same thing when I changed out the header, DP. I was able to adjust the KR during the 2nd gear pull but still had some during 3rd.

I think that you should have told me that you weren't coming for my exhaust instead of having me wait for you, only for you not to show up.


I also think that you should have bought my exhaust... as with just my exhaust and Stg2 I put down 263whp 240wtq. Much more than that once tuned.


I guess that's what you get for ******* somebody over.

Could be, if he is on stock catback like it was stated the dp tails down to 2.5" at the back end where it meets the res.

Depends on the primary size to, my guess is 1.75" but im not sure.

Long story... but it all comes down to the fact that he could have sent a simple PM or Text to let me know he wasn't coming for it.

Basically, He wanted me to install the exhaust. Okay, no problem... he swore up and down that he was coming. I asked for a deposit to make sure... he said he couldn't use PayPal for some reason, but swore up and down that he was coming. So, my car is on jack stands... and my wheels were getting powdercoated, so I had to go out and buy new jackstands. Jackstands cost money.

I work till 6am and the install was gonna go down at 1pm... so I got 4 hours of sleep and then went and bought the jackstands. Then I sat in my garage twiddling my thumbs for 3 or 4 hours. It was actually a productive day.

Blah blah blah.

I'm not really pissed off, that much... but its a simple goddamn courtesy to send someone a text to let them know you aren't coming for something.

A dyno gives numbers... that's all. You can't compare one dyno's results to another dyno's results... especially when you don't know what KIND of dyno it is (Dynapak, Mustang, Dyno-Jet, etc) and when you don't know things like Air Temp, Humidity, Altitude, etc etc etc.

Not to mention, the dyno operator can manipulate those numbers pretty easily.

yes exactly, see my post above, I dyno'd low. I don't know how much of that was my tune and how much was simply because it was a different dyno, but a dyno is simply a tool to gauge where you're at. to make sure that you actually gained power and didn't lose it and to see where your powerband is at so you can make tweaks. Also, I dyno'd on a really humid and rainy day... so who knows.

The numbers don't mean ****. You can't say he has nice numbers compared to other people... because you can't compare his numbers to other people's numbers.

In all reality... I'd say those are SHITTY numbers. Dropping $600 and only gaining 8hp? I'd want my money back.

It's the truth too. Happens to me sometimes. Waiting around making plans with people who flake. Even worse when they fail their appointment and cost you money.

I never had any problems with ZZP. I personally don't like their headers, but I do love the 3" downpipe with highflow cat. Gained some real nice numbers with the downpipe on GMP exhaust, and GMP exhaust manifold.
