I'm happy with mine. If I had to do it again I'd buy the race version and forget all of the fittings. They eventually fatigue and crack. Same with other brands too though.

Well if you only plan on keeping the car for 3 years then do it. if you are gonna keep it then get the the coated ones as they will last longer.

The non coated will rust very quickly. I bought the coated pacesetters and the still developed rust on the collectors after a few years.

if you get the non coated ones you'll just regret it.

Non coated raises under hood temperature too. Go coated.
