Quick question! Any auto 2.2's have the ZZP mid length header/DP? I found a good deal on a used one and curious if it's worth it over the shorty/dowpipe combo. I know the downpipe is the biggest restriction in the stock exhaust, but I don't want to lose to much power down low going mid length. Also would I need a tune? Noob questions I know, but this is the only platform I've had options as far as header/dp.

You will need a tune to get the most of it and maybe to delete cat code if its catless. As for power ive never driven cars that had either combos.

Sooo....it's broken. I've never had a problem starting the car since I've got it. Was driving fine all day yesterday. Came out of the driving range last night and it wouldn't start. At first the car would start and then about a second later instantly die, like it was out of gas. Then after a while of trying to start it it will no longer start, just keeps trying and trying to turn over. Checked all appropriate fuses while it was still light out, and then sat and waited for the tow truck. I'm convinced it's probably the fuel pump, but could be wrong. I'm going to pull a plug today and try and turn it over to see if it's getting any gas. I hope to god it is and it's something spark related.

Have someone put the key in and flip it to run while you have your ear up to the gas fill hole. You should hear the pump prime for 2 seconds then shut off

anyone have manual mirrors? Or know if the "textured" cover is molded in, or if it comes off.

as in can I pop of the raw plastic insert and swap it with a painted one, or is it one piece?
