Z1 High Flow Cats review
 
I bought a set of Z1 HFC used of someone, the fitment was great the sound is amazing and i have it paired with a muffler delete. Its loud but it screams at wot there is a slight hiss from time to time. I didnt use the z1 gaskets because I was told they are trash. Highway drone isnt that bad. The guy who help me install it had testpipes with muffler delete and I didnt like the rasp this is definitely the way to go if you want testpipes deep sound without rasp and smell.

I would not recommend installing the Z1 exhaust gaskets as before I have had to take my exhaust apart to replace the Z1 exhaust gaskets because I had an exhaust leak due to their gaskets. I use red rtv and gaskets I have used FI,AAM,Berk,PPE,Motordyne etc. they all have worked well. You may have an exhaust leak? You should have a exhaust shop you trust diagnose your Z to see if you have an exhaust leak if you can’t do it yourself. Exhaust leaks are best diagnosed in person.

The hiss is normal for VQ motors. It might be because you mentioned it.
