zzpheader and dp question?

So i ordered the header and dp combo. But i ordered the 1 3/4 dp to the 3" header. I also have a 2.5 inch exhaust. So my question is, should i have ordered the 1.5 inch header and 2.5 inch dp or will i be ok with what i ordered? I was just worried about them being to big and causing me to loose power. thanx

Who told you that you would have a power loss? You WANT the exhaust to flow. 1.5 inch header is too small for the LSJ.

the only thing i would argue with and i know thers alot of people that would argue and that would be the 3" downpipe..... now if you plan on doing some more mods than stage 2 then youre fine... other than that i would have gotten a 2.5 dp.... but oh well to each their own

i also have it. install was pretty simple, sounds AWESOME with my magnaflow. one of my bolts snapped, many people seem to have that issue so do yourself a favor before you install, buy some heavy duty bolts.

i love it personally,.... my options were:
Model:1.5 inch high temp paint
Option 1:Magnaflow cat
Option 2:304 stainless downpipe
Option 3:2.5 inch downpipe, bolt in
Option 4:Add extra O2 bung for wideband

The header dp really deepened the sound of my exhaust... im relaly glad i did it...

my only problem is that i keep getting a leak at the header and dp.... the first time the washers broke lol... so i replaced those... anyone else getting this?

mine were fine for about a month. was cruising on the highway and heard a loud POP and sounded like something was bouncing off the highway and then hitting the car. once the car got loud as **** i knew it was a bolt.

Mine kept leaking, I had to tighten the bolts like five times. Finally when I did the cat back I replaced the gasket and bolts. I red loctited the bastards, no more leaks since...

You've never heard of it? You can get it at advance auto or auto zone.
