I have Pacesetters and they are FANTASTIC for the money, but next time i think i'll go with Hooker (Jet-Hot coating) the pacesetter coating is OK, but surface rust began two months after I put them on! I also believe that the walls are a bit thinner than most of the other headers out there. Be sure to get the O2 extensions, GOOD QUALITY GASKETS, and install them with alot of care, and you have yourself one great investment .

**Also, start your car with open headers, you'll love it **

my pacesetters are awesome...mines are still looking pretty brand new..besides scuffing them a few times on the monster speed bumps around taco bell and gas stations they're better than i expected for the price, very nice welds, very nice flange, no leaks for me at all lol
