really the designs are pretty much the same except the collector. big difference is the size of the tubing(SW is 1.75 and Pacesetter is 1.625"). and really 304 stainless can still rust given the right conditions.

That collector on the SW tapers so quickly it's going to cause turbulence and restriction. You want a long smooth taper, not a short abrupt one. I'm not saying you won't see great results. I'm just saying I think you can do better. Especially for $900 sheesh.

I did not use the collector I have true duals on it, but after looking at the collector I would agree not to use it.
