ZZP Header

I got my new header and downpipe today from ZZP. The quality is actually better then I expected. A shop next to my house quoted me 150 to install. Do you think this is hi? So i get it installed tommorow and i'll let you know if the Butt Dyno yields any results. Here are some pics. Dont mind the dirty carpet. My nephew stayed with me and my brother for like 2 weeks and just ruined the carpet.

WOW, the one my friend got looked like crap... the primaries were half blocked by the flange and when we installed it, it was too tight to the block and was pushing against the coolant crossover tube in the back causing a massive coolant leak.. needless to say 9 hrs later we ended up putting the stock manifold back on....

Let us know what you think. I'm at work, so I can't see the pics. Did you the the all 3" downpipe, or the one that bolts up to a 2.5" cat-back? Also, is this with no cat or with a highflow cat. You're gains will be more with no cat.

I got the one that bolts up to the 2.5 catback. The 3 inch is a weld in application. I got the one with the high flow cat due to emmisions.

I have it and it went in without a hitch. I had to get my own bolts to connect the downpipe to the header. Just remember to tighten ALL the bolts and don't work on the car over a grate...that really sucks when you drop tools and they fall under the grate (Kritter). I didn't reinstall the cover, it didn't exact fit.

install pics

I'm glad it worked for you... I'm just pissed I wasted a whole day working on someone elses car and didn't even get to retune mine for the intake and injectors.
