Traditionally a 4 cylinder car header company and more recently into the sports cars. Reviews among the ricer crowd is that they are well made.
Most of us have done the Pacesetter Long Tubes...

I've seen those in person installed on a 2wd qc hemi..the fit and finish is good and his truck performs great with them.. this was about 3-4 years ago when he did them..

thanks, I really want Stainless and dont want to spend 1500 on TTI, ARH, or Dynatech. granted they are great products, but i'm just not willing to pay that much for stainless when OBX sells a decent product for much, much less.

only problem i see is that they arent ceramic coated...so...i guess its personal preference or you want to spend the extra time and money either sending them off to be coated or buying the exhaust wrap stuff.....but its good to know that people have seen them and such...i was looking at them also.....to me it comes down to all the extra parts or pacesetters and having them come ceramic coated....tough decision for me.

I've seen dynatechs in person to and they've got to be the class of headers...I have coated pacesetters and i think the obx's look better then them. I do believe the collector is a different size to though (pacesetter is bigger..3"). I ran the same size piping from the collector all the way to the muffler on mine...
