Bolting ZZP midpipe resonator to Tsudo Catback?

Ive got the option catback/tsudo same thing. Got a guy who will sell me the middle section of the ZZP exhaust (muffler got messed up i guess), with the resonator.

Now when i do my header and catted DP I assume the cat will be scary loud, I also assume the ZZP resonator is larger than tsudo and will quiet the car more.


So basically I want to know if its worth it to swap resonators and if the ZZP midpipe with bolt in with the rear section of the Tsudo exhaust?

2 different exhaust companys, most likely will not bolt together in the same spot

So, i didnt realize he has most of the catback. Can someone tell me if all that I would need to do would be to weld on a muffler? Ill just buy the whole thing and try something different, maybe a borla XR1 or something.

Figured mike would say this. I got the header and dp for $175 and he will give me the whole exhaust for $75. Dont think i can pass on a deal like this plus, when the hell is a auto DP/header midlength ever for sale used?

the exhaust itself is welded so id have to do that too.

or keep the tsudo and add a longer resonator or add a small cherry bomb behind the existing resonator.

So I got everything for an amazing price.


Just have to figure out what kind of muffler and tip to put on or reuse my tsudo muffler? not sure. Also my tsudo is 2.25 and the zzp is 2.5". Would that be beneficial for low end torque to have the muffler and rear section before the axle (where it bolts) to go down to 2.25"?

And again im not sure if should keep the axle sectron 2.25" wth the tsudo muffler or go 2.5" and use a different muffler.
