Default Which of you are using Pacesetter LTs ...

Was interesting in getting a set of these ceramic coated probably with the regular offroad Y pipe.

Found a deccent deal for $500 for the set/Y pipe on texasspeed/performance

Good deal?

How do you like em?

Buddy of mine had them on his 98 Auto and loved them, now has a 02 and car came with Macs

A few people I know bought them and sold them right away..... hmmm

just curious to know if their is something I should know!

I know that they are only coated on the outside, correct?

I got mine form Texas Speed also. I also got the o2 extensions and rear o2 simulators. I thought it was a pretty good deal. I love the way they sound. I can't remember if they were coated on the inside. I also have no mechanical experince, but me and my brother put them on our own, we were lucky enough to have a lift, it made everything go much faster. I don't think you'll be dissapointed for the price.

IMHO there are really only 3 companys that are worth buying from when it comes to LTs. Bang for the buck Pacesetter. If you have the extra $ then Kooks or QTP. Everything else is to much $ when u can jus get the Pacesetters. Once again just IMO.

$500 is a decent deal, you might be able to save $20 here or there but they're all in the same ballpark.

Ordered a set last week...patiently waiting...

Got mine from TSP. Couldn't be happier. They went in great without any modification at all. I also got the O2 extensions. The price is good for LT's & ORY.

Got mine from TSP too, I even paid TAX on them so I could buy through TSP. They are great headers, no doubt about it.

I suggest you get the "race" version, then delete all the emissions BS.

Thats why you buy the race style headers, so you don't have to go through that crap. I have a set of pacesetters, and couldn't be any happier. The fitment on them is great, We didn't have to modify anything to get them to fit. I say go for it, there is nothing to lose with this great set of headers.

Get the race style! If you don't the egr fitting will eventually fall off the primary causing a HUGE leak. Ask me how I know.

I love my Pacesetter long tube ceramic coated headers. The y pipe gives me a little bit of problem though. I may just need new motor mounts though. Even after a little grinding the y pipe hits the bottom of car when you first WOT. The headers fit great look great, and sound awesome!
