zzp combo review

3rd and 4th gear pull hard as **** now..

first time i went on the highway after installing was today and i was just accelerating normally and it felt so much smoother/faster.. so i figured wtf, i mashed the gas and i felt a HUGE difference, i am so happy i bought this piece, other than the paint peeling right away, i cant wait till i get my catback/tune

how are your headers lookin? is all the paint off yet? i know someone was going to paint 1200 high heat on it...

im just waiting to find a oven that my header will fit in so i can bake it for a couple hours... should help the paint adhere to the header and get some more life out of it
