Default Re: pacesetters

Installed Pacesetters LT's, PAcesetter PRY, and Hooker cat back this weekend. Headers fit great. Drivers side hits put with just a slight nudge with a 18" prybar and it went right in. Passenger side slid right in. The ORY did not have the passenger side pipe expanded though. I had read about this from other posts and had my local exhaust shop cure it before the install. The ORY is hitting on hard take off also. I will need to get back under the car and see what the clearance problem is. I think it is because I installed the ORY as far forward as I could get it on the headers. It made the ORY very close and I believe all I need to do is move it back about 1/4" so it lines up better with the relief on the car body. One other thing is that if you get Hooker cat back you will need to have the pipe expanded slighty to fit the Pacesetter ORY. It was made to fit the stock pipe which is slightly smaller in diameter. I feel that I got my moneys worth. For the price of the ORY I can live with a little fitment issues. By the way the Hooker cat back sounds great on these. I am getting some of the rasp I have heard others talk about also. Not enough to warrant a change of anything though.
