Very nice! I didn't realize that Pacesetter made G8 headers already. Looks like I'll be picking up a set. How do you like the Solo catback?

Yes sir Texas-speed has the pacesetters. I'll let you know about the solo catback I'm about to go pick the car up now but from hearing the video I'm sure I'll love it

No cats and no mufflers. Bet it's loud as hell.

Good pictures.

What is the name of the kit you got? shorty, shorty balanced, Mach, Balanced, V2? Did all the components mate up to each other or did you have to modify the catback to mate up with the Pacesetters?

It's the Mach shorty balanced kit. There were no modifications made for the kit to mate up to the headers. The only modification was to the oil dipstick tube had to be moved a little bit so the headers would fit right very minor adjustment

Thanks and sorry, I was reading the whole thread again and I see where you mentioned it already. For the cost I think I'm going to go the same route except maybe with the Mach Balanced kit.

Not a problem man I'm more than willing to answer any questions. You'll be happy with the exhaust. On the way to work just cruising I turned the radio down to 15 and couldn't hear any drone or the exhaust over the speakers it's nice and quiet on the inside.
