I have the HPS set and if I were to do it all over I'd go Z1, and get the breather hoses to do a more "complete" job.

HPS hoses seem to have to be cut regardless of color. My red ones were stupid-long at the breathers.

I heard the Z1's are a better fit but tougher to get on.

Each to their own, but Z1's tubes have finished ports to connect to their own silicone breather tubes. HPS and stuff connect to the OEM breather tubes off the bat, but the OEM stuff is kinda...dinky.
