I've heard a lot of back and forth with BBK/Pacesetters. I'm getting a LT header/ORY kit from BBK from WS6Store, a sponsor on here. From what i've heard they're the best bang for your buck but we'll see. I'll post up some pics of the install for you if you like.
I have never owned a set of pacesetters but after my BBK LT/ORY install I could really feel a difference. But of course this was going from stock mani's to LT's. Also the BBKs were really easy to install without the need for any car lift. Just a good set of jack stands.
SN: Never heard anything bad about the pacesetters, just chose BBK because they are budget friendly.

I installed the bbk kit earlier this year and was very happy with fitment. Price was great and quality was excellent. I could definitely feel a difference as well over stock manifolds/exhaust. I chose a Magnaflow catback and the bbk y mated up perfectly.
I think the 2.5" y-pipe and 1 3/4" primaries will hold them back a little. I'm not saying they won't give you good performance, but they will leave some power on the table compared to a 3" y-pipe and 1 7/8" or stepped primaries or duals for that matter. The price on them is very good though.
