Has anyone seen any real gain from the pacesetter header

 

If your considering getting this, which does have gains, you may want to upgrade to this:

ZZP is a trusted brand here on the forums, and they have demonstrated gains. They are also on sale right now so you could get an incredible deal! $300 and change can get you a header and downpipe.

 

Yes pacesetter is a great header for the price. Expect 7-10 WHP from the header. We carry them in stock, PM us with any questions you have.

 

If you went for this header, I recommend this vendor. They have a great price on it.

 

i have the pacesetters armor coated header can i love it not problems at all i do say you get the armor coated not the painted the painted will burn off in 5 mins the armor coated stay's shinny

 

I use to have it on my cobalt and it definetly made the topend a bit better and the exhaust sounded louder but pretty good with the magnaflow catback.

 

but you can't used your stock down pipe with this header. Right?

 

No you need to have a shop fabricate one up for you. Having the header, downpipe made and installed cost me $250

 

Did you have the header on the 2.25" magnaflow or 2.50"

 

Dude does 250.00 include the cost of the header????

 

The headers is $270 with armor coating right? Plus $250 for fab?

That seems a bit high. That must be the paint header plus fab, $180 (header) + $70 (fab parts) = $250. But then again were talking about a whole downpipe so I am not so sure it is that cheap.

If your going mild steel, just get the whole bolt on kit from zzp:

You can get it for as low as $280 plus shipping.

 

Had one on my Cavi and I can honestly say YES! It knocked like .2 off the 1/4 mile times AND sounded great! DEFF worth the cost!
