ok guys i got a crazy deal on pacesetter shortys 130 shipped new and a used bassani y pipe for 160 i thought what a deal for my CA car but let me tell you the bassani y pipe is a piece of sh*t , it hung way too low and my car is factory height and i scrapped a speed bump my factory exhaust didn't , the pacesetter shorty headers are a good header but all the bolts and gaskets are paper and really cheap , the flanges should have studs not bolts , their first mistake , and should have made all bolts grade 8 at least seeing how i broke 5 of the six with a ratchet LOL. other than having a muffler shop fix bassani's work for an extra 120 it sounds like a monster . but if you do get pacesetter headers get new flange , header, gaskets along with all new grade 8 bolts you will save your self 4 days of bs !!!!

Personally I prefer bolts over blind studs in exhaust.
I use the Help! exhaust stud kits with the long brass
nuts, and a plain nut at the back, so I can always be
sure it'll come apart clean. I've broken enough exhaust
studs in my life.

I don't think you need Grade 8 bolts.

Now isn't the Bassani Y catless? How's that going to
help your Californicated situation any?
