hey guys i was going to purchase this u bend reducer for its properties: ZZ Performance
from wat i read it reduces a 3in opening to a 2.5in and my down pipe is 3 but my catback is 2.5. Before i purchase this i wanted to know if i was purchasing the right thing. and if i am purchasing the right item is $69 to much or can i get it cheaper. because ive been looking and dnt think anyone else sells this item with an already welded flange that i need.
thanks for any input.

im glad youre so willing to pay that much money for something you dont need.
you can also piece together a flange and a reducer for like $7.

Wait....don't the '04's not have the Ubend?
And furthermore if you have ZZP Headers, why?

I'm not sure what you think you're trying to fix. Put the money form the part, shipping, and paying someone to cut up and re-weld your exhaust into a tune.

omg thats what im saying, idk where to get these items....Originally Posted by Bio248
and im not sure u read wat i wrote . . . I HAVE A 3 INCH DOWN PIPE, MY CAT BACK IS 2.5 . . .SO THEY DO NOT CONNECT PROPERLY.

WOW i have an exhaust leak because both ends dnt match. so i should ride around with a loud exhaust and use that money to tune my pcm.
i dont knw about the ideas im getting . . .

Step one. Go to any exhaust shop
step two tell them what you need
step three put it on.
07-19-2010
i did . . . two different miniekes, they dnt have 3 inch pipping, they said i need to buy it and theyll put it on. thats why im asking if any other websites have it so i can just makeit happen.

OK,
#1, I'm only trying to help, so you can cut the A-hole attitude. I looked at your "specs" list, you say that you have ZZP headers, I know they come with a 3" downpipe, they also bolt up to the stock cat back if you select that option. Forgive me for actually looking at your signature to figure out what you're asking.
#2, the link you post goes to a U-Bend delete pipe, which is why I thought you were still confused on what you were actually looking for.
So with that, have a great day figuring this out without my help.

wat a hole attitude???? im not sure but u must be mistaken, i told u that u might have not read wat i wrote the first time, sometimes ppl over look things. and then i go on to quote wat i wrote in the first post????
where in the post does there indicate that i have some type of attitude wen i adressed u with no type of disrespect??? smh

Tazyboy28, told ya b4...u r better off going to a custom exhaust shop and have then fix it up.
BTW....ROTFLMAO!!!
07-20-2010
that sucks that they are charging that much for that thing. when i bought my 3in to 2.5in reducer it was only 9 dollars and the shipping was 8 dollars
07-20-2010
thats what i thought it was . . . and it was from ZZP right? wen was this?
07-20-2010
You have ZZP headers and a SLP Powerflo...I don't see the issue...there is no problem going from a 3" pipe to a 2.5" catback...reducers are stupid and so are you for going to Mieneke thinking your going to get quailty work. If you have an exhaust leak with ZZP headers then you didn't install them right. Reptile and I put his on in under 2 hours with no leaks. Your car didn't come with a U-Bend from the factory...so that thing won't help you anyways.
07-20-2010
no no no im saying the 2.5 inch flange does not bolt up to the 3 inch flange. a 2.5 and a 3 inch dont bolt up together thats why i need the reducer so the 2.5 end can be welded to the catback and the 3 inch side can be bolted to the downpipe. and theres not exhast leak from the headers its in the middle from where the flanges are suppose to bolt together. . . that is the only area where it isnt connected properly. argh lol
but anyway i think i found some parts after saying forget 3800 sites and lets take a look in to other sites.

Maybe I'm asking a stupid question here: If you're spending all this money on exhaust, why not go full 3" the whole way?
07-20-2010
naw its not stupid. thats wat i was going to do but i already purchased the catback before the headers because my original stock one was bent by a curb wen i was backing up. so i just bought a replacement . . .then i had enough money to get headers. then during installment i realized it didnt connect iwas going to by a nother catback but thats just a waste of more money.
07-20-2010
lol watever. i already googled it and posted it in the post above urs.
07-21-2010
Then something is wrong with your sh1t. ZZP headers bolt-up to any catback that is mass produced or the stock one. Sorry for your mishap
