Did you drop the tranny crossmember? We did on my ORY install and it went MUCH faster than it was before we decided to drop it lol.

With the Pacesetter truck headers it's like any other Pacesetter Product has been for the last umteen years....you get what you pay for. They aren't for me.

Yeah that's true. I guess I went in and forgot about the Murphy's Law. Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong. And I guess I can't bitch too much, because you have to end up fabricating pretty much anythime you do something like this.

As we all know..."bolt on" is just a bullshit phrase.

The thing is, Pacesetter has always made "cheap" products, and prob. always will. I just can't see taking an expensive vehicle like most around here have and "modding" it with junk. You really can't expect a high quality part from them. Think about it, I mean, Hyundai's have gotten better, but they still aren't a Honda or Toyota. I'm not putting down your choice, cause' I'm sure you weighed all of the factors, and I know that a $1000 for a set of headers alone is a ton of money, but you do get what you pay for.

You do speak the truth my friend. A man will get what he pays for.

I wouldent be so upset about it, but I did all the ceramic coating myself and fabbed up all the pipe and all that ****....just to have to beat the **** out of one primary to make it clear.

Next time around, it'll be Hooker more than likely.

I had no problems with the used one's I bought awhile back.....other that they are beat to hell and rusty.

But I may have just got a set of 2WD headers and I beat them till they worked.
