Default Pacesetter's ordered today

So I ordered the LT Pacesetter headers with the Y pipe, and was told to expect gains up to 25RWHP?!?! Is this accurate from these headers? Seems kinda high, I was thinking more like 15rwhp or so.

You should see more than 15 to the wheels. Probably about 20 or so and upwards of 25 with a tune. Mine definately pulls harder with them.

I just took mine for a spin today and even without a tune, the car feels like a different animal.

That's great then, the more horses the merrier. But no, I am not installing myself. I have a garage tha sponsors me, and they are doing the install free of charge, as per the sponsorship deal. I pay for the parts, w/ a 20% discount, and labor is free on MOST jobs. So I am saving myself the headache.

Yeah, sweet enopugh deal. I bring him in extra bussiness, so he makes money in the end. Unfortunately he won't do any cam upgrades for free..I spoke with a guy tonight who said he would do my headers for about $500....I laughed and walked away.
