New Exhaust! - 9/15/2006 9:57:28 PM    z34phoenix Posts: 627 Joined: 10/20/2005 From: Daytona Beach, Fl Status: offline Ok my cutout went bye bye today! my old system was the stock Z34 with a cable operated cutout just after the 1st res and cat. sounded pretty good, but i wanted more flow. So Here's the new system. Highflow straight thru cat. into a 14" round tube magnaflow. and out a Z28 style tip on the side. this thing sounds NICE! I'll get sound clips up soon. but its mean. sounds like a Clasic muscle car now. factory system is gone. and you need to be off to the side to see the new system and from the back it looks like there arent any mufflers at all. unless you get the glint reflection of the magnaflow. enjoy the pics... more to come in the morning. _____________________________ 96 Z34 3.4L DOHC: FWI,UDP,P&P,2.5" Exhaust, PowerTuner, Wideband www.cardomain.com/id/z34phoenix http://z34phoenix.piczo.com Post #: 1

Looks nice and a very clean install.... Did you get any noticeable increases in HP? _____________________________ (in reply to z34phoenix) Post #: 2

Montejass - you mentioned in an earlier post that your check engine light came on after you installed a new DP. Well, mine has come on with my new DP. What causes this and how do I fix it? Does it affect the car at all? (in reply to montejass) Post #: 3

ZZP claims that they have never had any problems with this but obviously there is a difference between stock outflow and the new mod. There are two ways to fix it, get an O2 emulator (available thru ZZP) or get DHP software and kill the code from showing up in the system. I reset my code with Hypertech the first time and it went 300 + miles before it came on again. Seemed to happen after a WOT run. I am going to clear the code again and baby it to see how long it will go in between errors. Did you get the ZZP DP?? _____________________________ (in reply to rchurch) Post #: 4

It has a hi flow cat built in and is mated to an SLP cat back system. Seems when you buy this they would tell you about the light coming on and what you need to fix it!
