Just wondering if anyone is using pacesetter headers on their G8 and if they like them? What kind of performance gains did you get from them and so on? Looking at buying a set of headers soon and they are the cheapest I have found. I am on a budget so I am limited to what I can buy.

Appreciate the info.

I hate to highjack your tread but I was just about to ask if any G8 guys would be interested in these. I know they make as good of power as more expensive headers. Only problem is they are mild steel and not stainless so they can rust out if you drive through winters and bad weather. If you get the Armour coat they will last longer but eventually they will rust through. I would consider them because of their price personally.
My question is should I stock them, I'm thinking about ordering some stock on these and putting them on our site. I would have the cheapest prices for sure.

I've never had any fitments issues with them. Their fbody models have good flanges, holes correct, ect. I like ball and socket better than slip fit though. I seem to remember having to supply my own gasket.

The price is good. Could go buy them time and time again if they fail for that price. I just think SS looks so much better especially on a car as expensive as a G8.

I had good luck with Pacesetters on my F-bodys but I went with Kooks for the G8. The stainless in much nicer. If you go with Pacesetters get the armourcoated ones. The paint burns off the black ones almost immediately and then they rust.
