You might want to put the Z-chip in series with your CPU (Maze3) block.
Even though you notice a 2 gpm drop with the Z-chip alone, it doesn't mean that the flow through the Maze3 will suffer much.
Since you have a flowmeter handy, you can simply try it:
parallel the z-chip to the maze3 versus maze3 and z-chip in series. Hook up your flowmeter to measure the flow through the Maze3, because you really don't care about the z-chip.
Since you brought it up... I also have a z-chip, and I have the brass 1/2" connections on it. Which barbs do you have?
