Hi, I have a 1995 camaro z28 with LT1 engine. The engine has little bolt ons like (air foil,Lt4 knock sensor, SS ram air intake, and a good tune up).

How much horsepower will Pacesetter Mid-Tube Headers and y-pipe give me ?
Will I have any problems with these headers like- burnt plug wires, ect...

Thanks for the help !!

 

I'd say you could expect 15-20rwhp. Headers were the only "bolt on" that i did on my car that i could actually feel a noticable difference in power. It was a pretty big SOTP gain. I've read bad things about the pacesetter mids. I believe they have terrible plug access and fitment on the mids. If i was gonna go with some cheaper brand mid's I'd go with Mac's in a heart beat.

 

go mac mids or pacesetter lt's

 

I agree. The mac mids are a sweet setup if you have to stay emissions legal. If you don't then go with the long tubes. People have picked up 25-30hp with the longtubes.

 

Just make sure the wires are secured away from the headers with cable ties or such and you should be fine.

 

Cable ties are your best friend....

 

I gained about 30 rwhp/35 rwtq from my MAC mids and Hooker catback exhaust.

You mention that you have the SS air intake, so you must have an aftermarket SS hood right?

I have pacesetter mids and I love them! No problems yet!

 

I love the Pacesetter mids. Plug access is awesome. I put the plugs in and forgot antiseize and pulled them out and reinstalled them in minutes. I would have never tried this before. The O2's are very easy to get to and look awesome. Bolting them down was 10 times easier than i thought and look sealed perfectly.

 

back in the day before i went wild I picked up a dyno proved 32rwhp switching from stock manifolds to hooker long tubes with true duals

 

Noticable SOTP in an A4 going from stock manifolds + magnaflow to macs + magnaflow

 

these are the headers I want to buy, are they ok to get ??

Pacesetters are a decent brand, just keep in mind that those are non-coated headers. The black paint they use is marginal and is mainly used just to get them through the storage/shipping process. Once installed on the car, the paint wears off pretty quick. Your best bet will be to strip them and paint them with a quality header paint.

 

you can get the pacesetters in the coated also

 

I just installed as set of pacesetter mid's today,the pass side went in without trouble but the drivers side i had to flatten(very little) the #3 tube some to stop it from hitting the steering shaft.
I did paint them with a hight heat silver paint to. Good luck with the choise.
