I would normally think the Hookers might have an ever so slight advantage in the fitment department but the latest revised versions of the Pacesetters are getting a lot of positive feedback.

Those are nice but not totally necessary, stock ones work well too.

Just reuse your stockers unless you just have extra cash.

I just got my Pacesetter's on today. The fitment is perfect. And the O2 holes are on the inside (side of the collector that faces the other header) where they should be. They rock!

I'm going to go buy some socks for mine because the 2nd cylinder back on the drivers side head almost touches the header. Not the wire but the little boot that plugs into the wire. Every car will differ though, wouldn't hurt.
