I would not even consider putting it on mine.

PoorMansCamaro · 09-19-2010, 10:42 PM

Gotta hear it before I bought it. Even if it is only 350. Maybe for that reason would I want to hear it before buying

Just get an MRT system they sound really nice

You know it's bs when they state there is 14% horse power increase lol. 14% of 312HP is 43HP LOL... ridiculous.

They are lying about the horsepower increase. Pacesetter used my car as their test car for developing this exhaust and their headers (which I don't think are out yet). They do NOT dyno their products. Words from the owner himself "our stuff usually comes in around where other products do as far as gains so we don't feel it's worthwhile to test the gains on a dyno".

Honestly they are a really shady place. I was supposed to get a free set of headers and exhaust...that was...8 months ago? I keep getting the run around from them and ultimately said screw it and bought American Racing headers. I would not give Pacesetter your money.

Yeah i was never a fan of pacesetter. Some of my buddies had the headers on their old cars and within the first year had to replace because they rusted out.

On topic though, how did the exhaust sound? haven't seen a clip of it yet.

christianmotox · 09-20-2010, 05:48 PM

X2, any sound clips?

I couldn't tell you. I left the car with them for a week when I was out of town. They refused to take pictures or videos for me of the parts. By the time I came back my car was put back how I originally had it. Well actually that is a lie. They completely screwed up reinstalling the existing MBRP catback that I originally had on there. I ended up having to go to a local shop and have them pay to fix it just because I didn't want to deal with Pacesetter anymore. They told me my car would be kept indoors the entire week and it obviously was not. They told me I would get any of the stuff they made for free and then back pedaled on that and said I could pick one product for free. I picked the headers and was promised them 8 months ago. They keep coming up with excuses so finally a few months ago I just bought the AR headers.

Oh man, that sucks! That's some garbage right there. Unacceptable.

DevilKnightFalcon · 09-20-2010, 07:27 PM

Yup so I know for sure that I will never been purchasing any Pacesetter products. Hell if I got em for free I wouldn't even put em on my car. From what I saw of their headquarters (which is here in AZ) quality is not a concern of theirs.
