Review Pacesetter Headers I dont know where else to put this but I purchased my original set of headers 10+ years ago about 4 years into them one of the egr pipes that I had blocked off blew off and left a nice hole in the header. I thought no biggie, bad luck, and it was a known weak point. I read that they had made changes to the headers to address the issue so I ordered up another set. From the very day that I had installed them I heard an exhaust leak. This was teamed up with a TSP catted y pipe so I thought the band clamps weren't doing a good job. I chalked it up to me being young an cheap. Fast forward to today and I'm finally sick of it. I take off all of the band clamps and start getting ready to weld it all together.
I start inspecting all the connecting points and come to the driver's side header/collector and find that the collector wasn't fully welded up! So Buyer beware with Pacesetters. I'm 0-2 on getting a quality set in my hands. The rest of the headers look to be in decent shape 6 years in I do live in Cali so there's that.

Sorry to hear that. My Pacesetter headers are around 15 years from what I gather (previous owner installed them around 2003) and other than some surface rust they seem fine
