I am running their 3" DP w/o Cat and I love it. I also bought my Magna-Flow Catback exhaust from their website. I plan on buying their Shorty headers in the next month.

I have their header/dp combo, 3" w/o cat. It fit perfectly and you can deffinately tell the difference in power when you hit the gas. I recomend it 100%.

I'm running a Pacesetter system (pretty much identical to the ZZP)...
Love it... above 4k had shown noticeable gains, even on a stock pulley...
I highly suggest the ceramic coating, and a 3" DP.

If your ambitious, get the catless system, and throw a high-flow spun steel core cat, instead of the Magnaflow cat they supply with the catted system... they last longer.

Edit
In case anyone cares, I'm running a Magnaflow CB with this system.

I have the midlength header/DP combo and a GMPP catback. The header has 1.75" Primaries and the DP is a catless 3" with a 2.5" flange at the end. I love the system so far, gains above 4k are nice and well worth the money. Install was a breeze and took under a hour with a lift and tools.

whats the point in getting a 3in downpipe if its only got a 2.5 flange??? doesn't that still restrict flow? and if it doesn't don't you want some backpressure? or is the 3in downpipe still got some backpressure

i have the mid lengh header/dp combo, and love it. sounds great with my magnaflow. where in jersey are you from?

i would just upgrade the bolts, even though zzp claims that they come with upgraded bolts. mine ust snapped yesterday, and needless to say it was an embarrasing ride home driving open header

Backpressure robs power

because you can get it with a 3inch flange so the whole system is 3 inch

backpressure is unimportant

Are you noticing that must of a gain threw the 2.25 GMPP? I figured it would hold back the rest of your exhaust.

3 in dp to anything other than a 3'' cat back is pointless, only thing your going to gain is a nice throatie sound.

wow... back pressure is unimportant... and back pressure robs horsepower... um back pressure is important... with out any you lose power... and with too much it does rob horsepower... you've gotta find somewhere in between... try running open header without any backpressure see what that gains you with these cars... i must say have ever i do not know from experience, but others have said they lost power down low and gain a lil up top
