pacesetter longtubes
 

let me start by saying i have heard all the theories about how long tubes kill low end torque, in my experience they do not. anyway, i bought the pace setter longtubes and y pipe and plan to install them this weekend. if anyone has already done this mod could you give me some pointers? should i put a new starter on now or is it easy to access with the long tubes in place. thanks.

Shoot, I woundn't put on another starter cause who says the new one will last 6 months.
I'd keep the one that's working.

Another note, not trying to dis, but in the Sport Compact world we stay'd away from Pacesetter.
Is the quality different here?

well in the truck world we like to stay away from the sport compact world. the fact is i already bought them and im putting them on. i was looking for advice from some one that has done the mod.

anyone???

RE: pacesetter longtubes
 

I have heard bad stories about Pacesetter around these truck forums (no firsthand experience with them myself though), but I have also seen a few posts about these new longtubes they make, and they seem like they are quite nice. Only time will tell if they hold up though.

i love mine except for the fact i think i got a bad set of coated headers from the factory...everyone else has no problems with the jet hot coating....and for performance wise there is no contest with these over the shorties

RE: pacesetter longtubes
 

do these headers fit the 4x4'sthey saythey do but i was woundering how you get it around the front drive shaft?? if anyone has these on a 4x4 i sure could use a pic!
thanks

RE: pacesetter longtubes
 

I saw pics on another forum of them mounted on a 4x4. Seriously tight fit, but they work. Looked really good too.
