Default 04 GTO headers

I'm planning to get Long tubes headers ..

Kooks is lil bit over my budget or I've to save more .. I'm thinking in pacesetter . Is it ok or it has got some fitting problems ? Quality ? HP ?


Anybody recommend the pacesetter ?
1 3/4 is the size . I'm staying almost stock just exhaust and CAI that's it . Is my size fine ?

Size is ok, fit is ok, power is ok, quality is what you're giving up. Pacesetters have a habit of rusting quickly because they are not stainless steel.

My pacesetters have been on for a couple years now, no rust at all. It was my daily driver until 3 months ago. Great fit/finish.

1 season with the pacesetters on a spring/summer/fall driver, no problems. I have the low end ones and the paint came off almost instantly but I plan to cover them black again this winter.

Pushing 411rwhp/384Tq through them. Had hi flow cats welded into the mid-pipes and actually went back to the stock cat back exhaust (w/ H-pipe modification) after having them connected to a Corsa. Tight fit after we welded the cats into the mids but fit good with both the Corsa and stock exhaust.

I'd love to have a better header but then I'd be running headers and a CAI with about 320rwhp and wouldn't have the heads and cam because of the cost.
