"If they were painted at the factory with VHT Black Flameproof paint I woulf have rated Excellent across the board, Romoving the paint was as simple as starting the engine and running for 5 minutes and they were paintless wiped off the paint flakes and they were ready for VHT Coating for $5.00 the look andperform excellent now."

"i think the pacesetters as a product themselves were great. they add a substantial amount of power to the vehicle as well as great sound. however they were not very easy to install. in my personal case i had to actually cut my exhaust pipe leading from the original exhaust manifold to my cat and move my entire system several inches back! DISPITE that, pacesetter headers are a great product and i am very proud to have made them an addition to my car.THANKS!"

"Pace Setter takes care of cars that other brands don't. The headers are perfect fit, good looks and very nice performance. The only thing was that the screws that fit the "y" pipe to the headers were too long (not a big deal)."

"header is a great one minus the fact that it did not come in high temp paint like i think it said it did. no big deal though i just sand blasted it and repainted with high temp paint."

"I purchased this header in hopes to gain more performance out of my car. The header I bought was made to fit a Corolla GTS FWD, so it didnt bolt right into my car. The header flange fits perfect on my engine (4AGE DOHC). With slight modification, I was able to align the back tube to align with my cat. This header didnt do very much power wise on the low range, but I've gained huge power on the high end. This header gives very good performance, sounds awesome, and is very reasonably priced. I Purchased the wrong header first, and returning it in exchange for the right one was care-free. Autoanything.com resolved the issue flawlessly. I stripped the black protectant off before installation and painted the header with some 1200 degree paint. It peeled off a little bit in the bends, but the straight tubes stayed attached. It looks great, performs great, and is overall worth every cent."

"The crossunder pipe could use to be reworked to not hit the bell housing of the trans and it needs to wrap between the trans and engine not under the front side of the trans pan. You include wiring for the O2 sensor but the location of the EGR is forgotten about. It also needs to be modified."

"yeah these are very nice headers. i really recomend getting heat rap though or else they get very hot. or else get some heat temperature paint. also you will notice the biggest change in performance if you have these headers and a high flow catalytic converter and a cat back exaust. i have all these on my car and i drive a 93 honda prelude H23 and i noticed a absolute huge difference. also after one use the paint came off. the black paint is only these so they dont rust in storage. its not made to protect any thing other than that"

"Put the headers on a firebird with a V6 and it was a really tight fit. Due to some alignment problems and one bolt that was in a really awkward spot the project took over 12 hours. The increase in performance was not worth the time and effort and if you have a shop do it for you we were quoted $400-500 so get your wallet ready."

"I got what I had hoped to expect with the pacesetters I purchased, the paint was a complaint I had read in reviews but it was stated that this would happen by the Pace Setter so no surprise. The fit was perfect, and results were increased RPM and fuel mileage. I onll wish there were options on configuration."

"These headers were the easiest ones I have ever put on. The hardest part was getting the old manifold off. The paint started coming off as soon as they got hot, it's a good idea to buy some high temp paint. Other then that I think these are the best headers for the price I paid."
