Default ZPI 3" Exhaust Anyone?

Does anyone have the ZPI 3" Cat-Back and S-Pipe? I think it sounds amazing and it's really good. I haven't seen anyone with it, so I'm curious.

you won't need it until you are pushing 350 whp. 2.5 will do fine up until then.

Well, I got a Magnaflow catback and it's 2.25" and the S-Pipe is 2'5", so I gotta upgrade somehow, so why not get a 3" while I'm at it?

I don't think they would sound as good or whatever. How much is custom usually?

Depends on the shop, but if you are on the way to more than 350whp, you'll need the 3" until you hit that though, you are losing backpressure which is important with small engines like ours.

Oh, ok. Anyway, backpressure hurts our cars doesn't it?

not mocking you at all, if i was, i would've posted a huge picture with the word search. you cant just have everyone do your work for you, need to do a little for yourself. its like driving a car thats turbo'd and has all this stuff done to it, and someone asks you what you have done to it, and your response "oh i don't know"

Well, I do know what I am going to be doing to it. And this is why there's a forum, to help each other out to create a pleasant and helpful enviroment, not to tell people to go search when they already have.
