Looking for opinions - Ebay headers or pacesetters? I'm trying to make a decision on getting the ebay staneless headers or pacesetters.
From what I have read the ebay headers are just what they appear to be - cheap. But they do work are are stainless (very thin but stainless). I don't think there is a bolt on y that will work without modification on them.
Everything I have read about the pacesetters says that they are the budget header no question. The issue I have with them is that they are more expensive and are not stainless (I live with snow). I do know that I can get coated pacesetters but I would prefer not to add that expense.
What do people think? Are pacesetters significantly better than the Chinese headers on ebay?

Honest a buddy put the ss ebay longtubes on his car,I put my pacesetter ceramic coated ones on within a week of him putting his on,well a year and a half later his look great mine are rusted,install was a pain but there holding up pretty well I would say,I heard the best ebay headers are the obx,the only thing that was crap with them was the egr connect,he just cut it off and welded a plate over it,think he paid 225

I've got OBX headers and y on my car, love it...didn't have to grind or cut anything, and great clearance with my set + all stainless for less than $500(with resonators). I re-used my manifold gaskets and used the clamps that came with the kit.
Thats my 2 cents but I hear pacesetters are great too, just not stainless
oh and something i just remembered: I dont think the obx Y is all 3", its close tho
