Pacesetters are a great bang for the buck, I got the PS coated, painted ORY, 02 extentions,etc. for 500.00 shipped from TSP on a GP on this site a few months ago. along with the 200.00 hotcam kit I found I have 700.00 in mods that turned my 107 stock trapspeed into high 114 speeds on stock F1's with 2.0 60 ft times. Cant wait to break the 10 bolt with some DR's. Get the coated pacesetters.This was before the Jantzer ported TB.

I would definately go coated. Not only do they look much better, but they keep exhaust heat out of the engine compartment and in the pipes. The last set of headers I had I didn't get coated, and I always regretted it.

I would go coated. A friend of mine had the uncoated Pacesetters and the paint chips off and can eventualy rust, so he took em back out and painted them anyway. I have coated Pacesetters and I love em so far.
