Default ZZP downpipe

i bought my 3in 304ss downpipe however it came with a canamex catalytic converter rather than a magnaflow... is there any significant differences between the 2 or should i just roll with it

If you paid for a magnaflow, I'd get ahold of them ASAP

I contacted ZZP they were more than happy to exchange but they explained that they swapped to this brand because of better fit and an overall better CAT. Anyone hear of the canamex brand?

Looks like their website says nothing about this Canamex brand. Says in multiple places that the downpipe includes a Magnaflow Cat.

Personally, I'd return the entire purchase and do headers instead.

If you do decide to swap out the CAT, I'd make sure they're paying shipping both ways. Don't let them force you into putting even more money into their parts. Their site says Magnaflow cat and you did not receive a Magnaflow so I'd say they should most definitely cover any additional costs in correcting the order.

I cant do headers in Texas too much hassle to get inspected. A few reviews said that the canamex cat they received worked well for them. It definitely increased horsepower the response was great

Oh, a set of offroad headers probably wouldn't go over so well with inspections

If you want to try out the Canamex, I'd go ahead and do that. Especially since ZZP is so far away from you and they'll probably ask that you pay shipping one way, they cover it the other. However, I would make the suggestion that they modify their sites description to include Canamex or Magnaflow cat.
