Kinda funny. Everyone said "Don't buy pacesetters, your get what you pay for."
Had my pacesetters on for > 1 year now with no issues. Slid right in with no problems. Most all of the Pacesetter bashers were QTP people.

I had difficulty on the passenger' s side. It was not worth it to me to send them back, or pull them off again, so I just pulled the passenger' s side, and grinded the top of the K-member. There was not a whole lot to grind, but I didn' t want to do it just for some headers. There was another tight area, on the side of one one the tubes, where it is VERY close to the subframe. Haven' t had banging yet, so that isn' t a problem, for now. Headers that were expensive, and supposed to fit. BUT, I did contact Barry, and he DID give me an option to send them back. I took it upon myself to modify my car. I don' t blame him for it, as it was my choice, at that point. I just didn' t want to have to pull them again, and wait to get them back.

My car has not been in an accident, and I had NO problems with the standard QTPs I had on there several months ago. Maybe a motor mount is going bad, but, I doubt it. Nothing on the car has changed since the old QTPs were on there. Room for error should be expected, as that is how these cars were manufactured. If you work with them, they will work with you.
