Oh great sounds good. I don't like raspy sounding exhaust though. Will it make a deeper sound? Cuz i like how my exhaust sounds like now.. it sounds pretty deep and not very loud

Mounts will stiffen up the engine so that you put more power to the ground and don't get wheel hop.
lap and le5 share the same head so zzp cams should work

Seems like a lot of people go with badmab headers and zzp dp. That's what I'm going with

Hmm good to know cleanxfe

And Im going to check on the zzp combo if not ill look into the badmab header and zzp downpipe and see which I like more.. thanks

Also what kind of mounts can I go with? I read here that I would need new mounts if I went on cpilovers because of axle binding?

You definitely wouldn't be disappointed in either of ZZP's combos. As far as mounts if it depends on if you are auto or manual. You can get rotated trans mounts from powell if you are a manual

No. You can get an engine mount but I'm almost positive that is your only option.

i was looking at some engine mounts on zzp and it says not compatible with auto trans.

also i saw an ls4 throttle body for the LSJ engine. will that fit on my 2.2 with the LSJ throttle body adapter plate?

Try TTR I believe they make engine mounts for auto. And the LS4 tb is over kill on a 2.2. Not sure if it would even work with that adapter plate but the LSJ would be more than enough. Some say it's even too big on the LSJ and makes the throttle feel too sensitive.
