    just wondering if any of you have either one. i was reading on the wbody 26" resonator. their price seem fair, but im not sure if it would do the job to stop the raspiness and drone noise. on the other hand the zzp is 28" and little more expensive. they both seem to do the same thing, quiet raspiness and drone noise. i can't decide which one is better for my car. someone reccommend me glasspack, but i don't think that's good idea for my mods. give me some feedback.

    They did a crapload of testing on zzp's, it's supposed to be designed for our cars and have the least cabin noise. That's why their price is up, because it's been proven by testing but I still don't know which I'm going to go with either...

    you guys lookin at the 2.5" ?

    zzp's whisper quiets are indeed supposed to be really good, but that's just the rep from a few guys on our local boards.

    Ron V. has said that either resonator will help, but may not be the cure for drone/cabin noise-- has seen good results with a glass pack instead of a resonator.

    that's what i've seen lately.

    just curious why the glasspack wouldn't be good? I have had one sitting in the garage since I got the car, and have been too lazy to put it in, but if there is some reason not to I would appreciate knowing

    on the local ilgpc board, (he's on here some too) user tommygloves had some of the 3" zzp resonators for sale (NIB)... if he still has em, would save you shipping.

    i'm curious too, why glass pack would sound better? toast, i read tommygloves old post when he had it for sale. he had the bullet resonator (wbody store) for sale and the whisper is what he's going to put on the bonneville.
