IMO Jet-Hot is 100% worth it... I have not heard one single complaint ever about anything.

lol btw, sorry everyone for pesturing you with header questions lately. My inspector jsut dicked me and told me I need to be emissions capable, And I dont want to buy one set of emissions passable headers, then regret it and wish I had different set of long tubes. And then my other problem, My Driveway, It is a FRICKING mess. VERY steep, and I dont want to shell out all this money only to bottom out and rip my new headers to pieces ...

From what I hear, PaceSetters give more ground clearance then most other long tubes as well. Anyone with more info please fill me in ? ...

Also, anyone who happens to know, How does Pace Setters coating hold up? Is it really worth the extra $110 ???

lol a nice angle is undoable with my driveway. My road is a slight downhill grade, and my driveway is around a 35 to 40* uphill grade, and it makes that change in a distance of about 15 feet, so even with my stock hieght car, it bottoms if i go out fast, I go slow its Fine though. How low are the flanges for the tubes? and how close does your exhaust get to your oil filter cause with my cooler on, im afraid it may touch them too and I dont want to have to rip it out. My filter hangs down about an inch maybe a little less, than a stock filter with the stock oil cooler thingy.

TPIS all the way!!! Best ground clearance. Plug access is good too I hear. They are like $950 shipped but thats with a y-pipe, so its not that much more than like Hooker. Worth it to me....always do it right the first time around.
