They last longer and they hold a cooler temp. Worth it.

Get the coated ones bro, they will rust on it. Especially if painted, that stuff does not last long at all. Shop around the forums you may pick up a set of coated headers for a great price. I know I did, $200 with 3" ory woohoo!

TSP sells the Pacesetters for a reasonable price. Check in the sale section also, someone is always selling headers.
