Hello, Need help on deciding with some header and dp combos

ZZP MIDLENGTH, ZZP LONGTUBE, or VIBRANT/DP coombo

I HAVE THE MEGAN DRIFT SPEC CATBACK WHICH SET UP WILL SOUND THE BEST AND PERFORM THE BEST WITH THIS EXHAUST???

 

Zzp long tube, with a 2.5 inch exit. Of course your car will be loud as hell with that exhaust.

 

It will sound dumb ass hell with a megan catback. Only 2.2 FULL exhaust ive ever like is the ZZP combo with GMPP Catback or the full vibrant exhaust.

get catted DP/header, then have an exhaust shop add another short resonator with a wide body in there like 12" resonator with a 4" body or something like that otherwise it will be rasp city.

 

What would sound dumb as hell? I heard the Midlength with the megan and it sounds nice no rasp at all

I'm telling you that exhaust will eventually sound like crap, loud and a little raspy. I had one for like two years, so happy when I got rid of it. At one point I was running a shorty header with a 2.5 catless pipe, dude it was freaking Harley loud....

 

Yeah, I will find out and learn my lesson I just got the exhaust installed yesterday and it's already loud and sounds good at low rpm then screams at high rpms which I kinda dislike, I'm most likely going to get the ZZP Midlength/dp combo and see where it gets to.....All in all I did have the DC sports exhaust on order but I had to wait 4 weeks for it to arrive.

 

I liked the exhaust, it was raspy but it was raw. I thought it sounded good just way to loud for a car this slow lol. I think you should spend a little more and get the long tube. I got the the longtube with a cat and a 2.5 inch exit. Best mod I've done by far. I've had a shorty header with an lsj cat pipe, a stock cat pipe, and a 2.5 catless pipe. Long tube did way more then anything else I changed.

 

See thats the thing I only heard the Midlength combo from youtube and have no idea what the longtube would be like??? I dont want so much rasp that ill be classified as a honda....Ill cry if I get called a Honda Cobalt

 

I've got ZZP's long tube with cat and 2.5 exit with Magnaflow exhaust and HOLY **** is it loud. I agree with BLKLS, it's a great mod because I did mine when I was NA and I could feel a big difference after it was installed. Just be prepared for the noise lol

 

i have the ZZP midlength combo with a catted downpipe and the GMPP exhaust, it sounds amazing!

 

im rockn the badmab header and zzp catless 2.5 dp, and lovin it

 

do you have the touring or sport?
i have the zzp midlengh catted combo and want the quietest 2.5" exhaust there is

 

I ordered the mid-length header, catted DP, and 2.5" cat back system yesterday from ZZP. Hopefully I will see it soon...

 

Vibrant header/downpipe kit. Best quality IMO.

 

stock will be the only thing that sounds okay on the megan exhaust. when its cold, the megan exhaust will be raspy, even on stock header and dp.

so, if you want it to sound good, then throw back on your stock cat-back and install zzp long tubes or mid-lengths, or the badmab shorty into a zzp dp

and if you dont like raspy, then dont get a cannister style muffler exhaust. go with corsa or gmpp.

 

stock cat or high flow? that does sound very good.


I heard a guys car with header, catless dp and DC exhaust, holy **** did it sound terrible.

 

ZZP/ Catted DP/ GMPP or Borla (pretty much the same thing) / end thread

 

^What he said.

 

Any setup with GMPP cat back sounds fantastic. ; )
Megan with stock header and dp is gnarly loud. Expect much louder when you upgrade those parts.
My GMPP, BADMAB, & catted ZZP set up is loud as hell at high rpm. But love the sound, even for the slowness. Lol

 

JBP vortex header/ ZZP 3inch catted / Vibrant 2 3/8" Cat back

sounds beast. a lot of drone tho drives me nuts.


I agree with everyone saying ZZP long tube and GMPP cat back.

What i want to do is switch to is ZZP long tube and HAHN cat back. all 3"
