I'd go with the 2.2 set up, I had a larger one from the 2.4 and it felt gutless on hills and inclines.
I'm thinking of ditching the dp I've had on for 3 years now, it was a quick fix for my flex pipe failure, and now my catalytic converter was acting up until I installed a spacer for the second O2 sensor, I did notice a lot of crimped tubing at the bends in the pipe, and it is only 1 3/4 inches inlet and outlet.
The flange back is 2 1/4 inch stainless steel from Walker, hmmmm, there is that rattle in the catalytic converter when I knock it with my fist, and the oil burning off from the whole vent tube deal.
It's spring time to order a new catalytic converter!

Blue, I may pass on the ZZP, and go with the other one. I would like a more OEM style cat, as I've had to use spacers on the high flow cats and this is not a drag car, so it's not a big deal.
If you hear rattling, I bet the brick is loose in the housing of the cat.
