I think the rebelautoworks DP has the potential to be the best,just by the quality in their pics alone

Rebelautoworx looks like the best IMO...heard too many bad things about the XTC and the ZZP, get what you pay for I guess.

Man, that's a bit pricey.

"You get what you pay for".....umm.....my CA header/CA XTC 2.5" de-cat downpipe have been on (along with my ARK N2) since November '06 and no problems. Sure, my CEL came on b/c of the lack of a cat, but that was expected, and will be taken care of when I tune it w/ HP Tuners.
