It might cuz the greddy uses a 18G and ZPI uses the big 16G which I hear are very similar. Anyone know??

^^ I'll take a pic tomorrow. Yes there seems to be a couple smaller then 2.5" but I'll check all tomorrow and let you know for sure. I'll see if I can tell what pipes are what from pics of the kit cuz I still don't have the instructions or part list. 
I can help you make a parts list..

Here's those pics. I found my old digital cam so these are better pics (still can't find my newer one). I also took pics of the down pipe, it's two pipes. All the pipes seem to be 50mm-60mm with one being 80mm (the intake or they call it suction pipe). I found one pipe to be bent on the end and no longer round. Is that hard to fix? Happy 21st zer0, don't party too hard.

Just to give a little update, I'm still waiting on my option 1 package. I'm told GReddy has the emanage on backorder but it seems that a billion other places have them in stock. :? Maybe it's the emanage with the tC map in it that's on backorder but it's over a month now. 
Anyway, I can't do anything without this so I'll keep you updated.

No, still don't have the option 1 and still haven't heard from them after sending an email on friday. This is why I avoided ZPI after wanting their stage1 so bad. I can't stand to wait and would rather go some place else that will give it to me in a timely matter.
I've thought about and going to look at a IS350 and see if after the down payment and trade if I can get it for almost the same as I pay for the tC per month. I really want my turbo and have some fun with it before I start to settle down in life but if I have to I'll buy the IS350 now.
Maybe I'll splurge a little and keep the tC and buy the IS350 anyway.

Little update. I got an email from them and the said "We got it in yesterday I believe. It was missing the harness which we will have today or tomorrow, and ship out tomorrow." So hopfully since I'm only an hour and a half from them it will be here friday or monday the lastest.
As for the IS350, I'm still gonna look at it this weekend but won't be getting it without trading in the tC. The payments come out to be about $125 more a month then I want to spend. I think I'll have some fun with the turbo tC and look into it again in next year. I'll also be keeping an eye out for the release of the new camaro (V8 not V6).
