Default Ahhhhhhhh Help

I am thinking of going with pacesetter LT's and catted y, stainless ones would be nice but its too much money....My friend told me not to bother wasting my money on the pacesetters.....I dont know what to do....1000+ for headers is a lot and i think i could put that little extra from pacesetters towards a torque converter....Thanks for any advice

find a different friend who knows what hes talkin about.

pacesetter are basically a hooker knockoff, their the same, have decent size flanges too. I have them with hundreds of other members and been nothin but happy with them, and im sure the other members got to spend the 600+ they saved on other toys.

My pacesetter coated LTs and TSP ORY with o2 sims/extentions should be here monday if the hurricane doesnt level my city. They are quality product and best "bang for your buck header"

I got a REALLY good deal from Jason@TSP, so if your lookin for headers check them out @ TSP ------------> or PM Jason ORRRRRRR check out the group purchase thread and look for the TSP sale on Pacesetters.


I dont know where you live since you dont have a city listed, but if your cars gonna see alot of snow/salt/sand id suggest getting a stainless, if its not going to see those conditions id go with pacesetters.

Yeah I am really happy with my pacesetters. I was going to go stainless but decided it was to much money. The pacesetters were pretty easy to install, they went in without any problems. Go with the pacesetters and put all the money that you save towards a converter. Also to keep the rust down on the pacesetters go in and polish them up every once in a while. I have had mine in for half a year now and have no rust yet .

I am happy with the coated pacesetters, they have improved their fitment issues from before.
