Ive got a friend who put the Pace's on his bird. They are one of the best fitting set of headers out there. Thats what id go with if i had to pick between the two...although ill stick with my QTP LT's

Hooker are nice, I have them on my totaled SS. They were great until that happened.

Easy choice. Pacesetter headers have a thicker flange, fit as good or better, have o2 bungs on inside, and are much cheaper.

Whichever you can get a better price on... My hookers were a pain in the *** to install but I'm pretty sure all LT's are. The O2s on the outside make it a little of a hassle to replace once there threaded on but it was no biggie for me. Either way you'll be happy

Just make sure you fire em up open header once,

you will never be satisfied with any Duals set up you decide to go with afterward...

Their Y pipe is excellent except one part. The inside of the nerge has alot of sawg left inside the pipe. You or a shop needs to get in there with a die grinder and grind it all out and you are good to go.

Why is it you never hear anything about Jet Hots? Im running the Jet Hots on my car and couldnt be more pleased. I did the instal on jack stands and didnt have to loosen/unbolt anything other than the spark plugs. There based on the Hooker design only thicker guage construction and the 02 bungs are also moved to the inside. They tuck really tight under the car also for lowered cars like mine.
