I got my downpipe from ZZP the other day and while looking at it I feel like where the downpipe bolts up to the catback is crooked. I contacted them and emailed them a picture and they said the downpipes are made in a fixture so it's unlikely that it's off, they didn't tell me if it's supposed to be like this or what. I won't have a chance to put it on until next weekend to see how it bolts up so does anyone that's bought one know if their's was kind of crooked too? Thanks

 

Do you have a better picture of what your talking about, need Moar lighting

Or do you mean how the end with the flex is kind of off to the right a bit ?

 

Yeah I'm holding the downpipe straight but where it bolts up is crooked. I dont know if it's supposed to be like that. Heres a better picture

 

its probably on that angle to clear the rear motor tranny mount like the lnf downpipe, why not try installing it before bad mouthing.

 

Not badmouthing, I know ZZP's a good company. Just wasn't sure if it was supposed to be like that

 

if they made it like that its probably supposed to be like that, they build them in a jig so unless the jig was dropped it probably isnt an issue. lol

 

I have the same header DP combo I just don't feel like rolling under my car in the snow to check, but your engine doesn't sit exactly center in the engine bay it's more to the right so I would say that's right.
ZZP makes good stuff, have faith

 

That flange looks like its supposed to be clocked about 15 degrees anti-clockwise. It should be ok, especially if they were made in a jig. It would be rare, but not impossible for the metal to warp after welding.

 

Alright thanks guys. I'll have to try to get it on earlier than next weekend

 

Put a new catless ZZP dp on my car a week ago, fit perfect, no CEL light and picked up 2 mpg. Sound didn't change much unless you get into it.
