Pacesetter Header w/ XTC Downpipe?
I am looking to get both of these parts, but have been reading both on here and on vendor sites that the Pacesetter has some sort of 3" extension that has to be welded right before the stock cat and that a piece of the stock piping gets cut there as well. Is this true? Does this mean that the Pacesetter header won't work the XTC Downpipe or that it just has to be modified? Any help would greatly be appreciated.

that's an issue with every downpipe that is made so far. they installed the flex pipe on the very end. i would presonally just have the local welding shop make you a downpipe, if you want the pacesetter header

heres what you do wait until xtc releases their header and buy the combination. if you dont want to wait you can always get the gmpp manifold and the xtc downpipe.

Thanks for the help everyone. I think I may go with ZZP's header and downpipe package deal now that it has been solved. Plus I know there wont be any fitment issues between them.

i dunno if they redesigned it. we put our friends on like 2-3 weeks ago. i go with the XTC downpipe. they sound really good and flow amazing. ill possibly be putting one on my car. yeah kenny sholud possibly making a header soon. talk to badgrl about it.

said it months ago, it looks like zzp had the same company make their headers that tog did. whatever company that is, i hope they go out of business soon because they can't design a product for ****.

I"m working on the header thing with him.... but not til after the 9th show.... Yeah that ZZP header sucked *****... I did hear they redesigned it... but in my opinion it wasn't that good... the collecoter sucked... the primaries were half blocked by the flange and it just wasn't finished tubes were uneven and didn't come together smoothly.... but it you could clean it up yourself... its not a bad deal.
