Well, you will probably gain the same amount of power with either combo. It depends on how much you want to spend.

not always true. some products are just overpriced due to being a new item, high selling model, or whatever else they can think of to rape your wallet. the whole point of having a business is too make as much money as possible

Honestly Vibrant header/downpipe/highflow cat....

"piece" together another kit, and have the same 100% perfect fitment quality and I bet you would spend more than the vibrant kit.

Also the Magnaflow has a lot of research behind it, it is manufactured by a "leader" in the industry.

Isn't the Vibrant a bit uh.......MASSIVE for 2.2? Correct me if im wrong, but isn't the Vibrant's collector/downpipe 3"?? If so, then def go with the 2.5" ZZP/Magnaflow combo or the 2.25" DC Sports combo.
