Headers??

I can't decide on which headers I should get. I'm deciding over Flowtech or Pacesetter. I know that having the gasket collector can be better than slide on because if you have an exhaust leak it is easier to fix a gasket than slip on. Which ever one I get I want them ceramic coated. I'm leaning toward Flowtechs but can't make a final decesion.

I am fighting with the decision, but it's between QTP and Kooks. Could use help on this issue.

Get QTPs. Do it once and do it right. Fit and finish are top notch. Worth every penny.

Go for price. Unless you want the HVM type QTP headers.

It all about which has the best price. I went with Kooks because of a GP, but I was also leaning towards Kooks because of comments made about QTP's catted Y-Pipe now fitting right since I went with cats.

I saw a set of Pacesetters for the first time last week I was amazed by the quality for the money.Thick flanges and tubing, excellent over all quality. The Kooks on a GP is what I'd do, but if money was tight Pacesetters would be my choice.

i just bought a set of pace setters the other week. Havent put them on, waiting for the cam and gonna do it all at once. The headers look really nice, great header for the price. If you go to the sponers sale section, i believe someone is having a sale on them this month.

I have had em both, I would get the Pacesetters. Thicker flanges, thicker piping, just a better made header. I didn't have any problems with the flowtechs though.
