Header gaskets
#5
I wasnt a big fan of the included gaskets. my manifold gasket wore out fairly quick, and the one behind the 02 before the cat broke into pieces.
I got the stock gasket for the pre cat. it's like $4, and seals a hell of a lot better. I also replaced the manifold gasket, I cant remember how much it runs. Both were felpro, and i'd recommend going that route rather than using the crappy gaskets provided by pacesetter.
other than that I like the header.

it worked for me. the cat & the header are different size pipes but it seemed to seal well. It didn't seal well at all with the gasket they provided. It ended up cracking into several pieces after a few months, and little chunks fell out. The manifold gasket from felpro (with the heatshield) also includes the egr gaskets.
edit: oh, and if theres a way to get the paint off, and put on hightemp paint do it, because the paint it comes with from the factory is regular paint, and burns off in the first couple hundred miles of driving (trust me, you'll smell it)

This is slightly off topic, but those of you who have the Pacesetter header, how do you like it? My stock system is cracked where the manifold meets the 2-to1 collector pipe, and rather than welding a couple used parts together I was thinking about buying the Pacesetter kit from summitracing.com.
