Default Pacesetter LT / TSP ORY install

Just finished everything up the other day. This is after being sent the wrong pieces twice for the ORY. Took me about three days excluding the days waiting for the ORY, I also had no previous experiance working on cars before this, really enjoyed doing it too. It sounds really nice with the dual dual exhaust, at idle it sounds damn near stock. Once you get on it though it really screams, I love it . The only thing is a pretty loud rattle when I take my foot off of the gas and down shift, it seems to go away after 2500 rpms on acceleration. Its only happens in lower rpm's. Cant really seem to figure it out, I dont think its the air valve either. But I could be wrong. thanks

I just came home tonight to my new Pacesetter and TSP ory! I cant wait to install it next week. Fit and finish looks great! Flanges look and feel smooth. Welds look good too. I was worried with all the stories I had heard. Glad yours sounds good. Hope mine goes as well as yours. ENJOY!!!!

When installing the pacesetters, do you need to raise the motor to clear the headers or no? i'll be doing this install soon also....I got the tsp duals though

No, just make sure that the car is jacked up really high. Once you get the car up, the headers will slide in with no problems.

I love my pacesetters and TSP ORY, got the hooker cat back and the car sounds great, and with the addition of my TC the combo knocked over a second off my times.
