That is incorrect. Look at the differences, the top picture is Pacesetter and the bottom is Jet Hot. You are correct about Jet Hot's being the same design as Hooker headers. They used the same style only relocated the O2 bungs to the inside of the collectors and used a slighty thicker metal on the flanges I believe.

I believe the flow is similar...the only thing I don't like about Pacesetters is how one of the primaries is shorter than all the others.

Yeah I understand that, but still not bad for best bang for buck for ceramic coated LT's. Go Pacesetter!

If Jet Hot is the same design as the Hookers. It must be the old Hooker design. The primaries are different then the Jet Hots. They don't have as many bends now. Driver bung on the inside and pass on the outside.
