I am running them. Very nice headers. I felt a difference but can't tell you exactly how much I gained because my tires jsut wouldn't grip last night. But I definitely felt a difference with the butt-o-meter.

I just dyno'd a car with them.
Car-99 SS M6
Mods,Lid,Filter,Loudmouth
He gained 16hp and I forget the TQ.
The car was Edit tuned for both runs,so the Header where worth 16hp Legit.

what is the Average HP gain the other Brand LT's (Hooker,Kooks,QTP,TR,FLP...) 22rwhp would be sweet but 16 seems kinda low, but i guess what im still trying to figure out is why they are so cheap? so if u guys who have em can give me your opinions that would be sweet, cause im looking into these.

im installing my pace setters and x-pipe tomarrow and im counting on more than a 16hp gain...what you start with is what will determine your gain. i see your car has a loudmouth..are you running cats>?..in my case i have the stock y pipe and cats and ill be going to true duals with the x pipe and pace setter lt's with no cats..and im willing to bet money that ill make more than 16 horses once i dyno.. but dont get me wrong..im not saying the headers alone will be responsable for my total gain, i know opening everything up along with gutting the cats will make a big difference. tsp claimed that one of thier customers cars made a 22 hp gain through his catback with the Pace setter LT's and a new y with no cats....my guess will be a 25hp gain with my set-up. ill post my gains as soon as i dyno

I got my Pacesetters in a GP on this site and did my install today. Complete install including a trip to the muffler shop to open up the Y pipe where it hooks to the catback and 20 mins of listing to the Hotcam through open headers Netted an install time of 4 hrs 10. mins. The last ten mins. spent picking up all the crap off the floor
