They aren't cats... They are just resonators... I think for the money obx is the way to go.. You get a ton more stuff and nicer by far than pacesetters imo

Are any of you getting any exhaust leakage whatsoever at the header to resonator flanges?

Looking at the Ebay pic, the header has a straight pipe (instead of a ball end), but the resonators have a socket type mating end. Looks mis-matched in the pic???

They have a "doughnut" gasket that sits on the straight part and makes a bevel to match up.

OK, that makes sense. I thought something didn't look right.

Thanks for the reply.

I also have a set I bought used off of ebay and I haven't had to beat anything. When my passenger side mount was busted the header hit the frame so those of you who have fitment problems need to make sure your mounts are solid.
