ok so i know this has probably been asked before but i have a quick question.

what is the HIGHEST QUALITY header and downpipe for a 2.2?

also, what is the BEST SOUNDING header and downpipe for a 2.2?

and lastly, what would be somewhere in the middle in terms of quality and sound?

thanks in advance.

 

IT HAS been asked. I just wanted to come in here and say that.

As far as highest quality, I don't know. Best sounding really differs...go to youtube and look for clips of different setups...

I myself don't want to spend the money on something like the Vibrant setup, so I will be going with a ZZP midlength header/dp combo. I'm not spending extra on anything, just getting the 1.5" primaries and 2.5" dp bolt in with high flow cat. It'll be $350 plus shipping.

 

subed... im in the market... JBP sounds the best by far.... quality Id say prob CIA

 

just put the zzp 1.75 primarys on my car with a 3in downpipe. very very nice product i would recomend it to anyone. only reason its so big is because im slow.

 

quality and sound hands down is clear image for all exhaust components


/thread

 

i have heard that JBP sounds the best but I heard it is the worst performance-wise because of the way it is twisted to create the vortex sound or something haha

I hear the Vibrant setup is very nice but not too great sounding. And also I thought i heard something about ZZP having terrible welds and poor products? correct me if i'm wrong

enjoy

 

Jbp doesnt loose hp is just shifts the powerband

 

so where is the powerband on the jbp?

 

quality im gonna say the vibrant, as far as sound definately jbp's vortex header, and then whatever dp you want

 

I heard the SS/SC downpipe is great for our 2.2's... correct me if im wrong?

 

having installed pretty much every combo of parts (never saw the jbp in person, so won't comment) by far the vibrant is the best quality. Also pretty damn expensive. Sound is subjective, and personally I like the zzp setup.

 

better then stock, but not great

for the lsj

 

jbp shifts it up.... An as far as quality... JBP and Hahn are best hands down

 

My zzp downpipe was excellent quality, that's what I recommend.

 

I'm not sure what to choose also... I eant the JBP, But also like the CIA... Hmm such a hard decesion!

 

i can only recommend who to stay away from lol.

 

who is that?

 

I AM NOT getting banned for vendor bashing today.

 

so what do you guys think of the JBP vortex header and the ZZP catted downpipe?


EDIT: I see JBP makes a vortex downpipe also, is this any good?

 

JBP **** is amazing... their build qualiyt is nice... and for vendor bashing... pm me

 

it is very good only if ya got the money...**** is expensive

 

Im debating so hard on JBP or CIA... WRX sound or normal 4 banger sound??????? Help

 

JBP sounds amazing, my boy John has it, it does not loose power, it helps with torque, basically makes a longtube header but in the space of a regular 4-1 header.

Vibrant sounds good but is loud as F*ck. ZZP... not bad but I dont care for the sound.
You are correct but it still gives minimal gains compared to most aftermarket systems, JBP with the Vortex H/DP combo is about the best I know of.
WRX, I know most of us dont sound like Hondas but still, be special call it a baby Porshe.

 

the jbp... in person, do you think its raspy at all? or deep?
