Quite simple really...  The ZS uses a whacked restrictive intake/exhaust 
manifold (1 piece).
The stock setup for twin SU carbs includes a nice intake that goes 
almost directly into the intake ports, as well as a separate exhaust 
manifold (2 pieces).

Technically, you don't _need_ the exhaust manifold that comes with the 
kit (you could buy a header instead), but the stock manifold is very 
nice (and doesn't leak quite as readily as headers).
