Why not jeff, you may gain a handful of horsepower. Do you have any idea what they are proposing as far as configuration, will they be ceramic coated, etc.

I have the zzp longtube header with catted downpipe, improved power and sound.
A great mod if done right, but a poor design can rob power, cause fault codes etc.

Not to mention if untuned, it will do nothing for the car other than provide a little better sound

Does the ZZP header fit a LAP 2.2 Ecotech?
