I'm getting TTIs. Can't beat stainless in the upstate NY winters. I was going to go with dynatech but they're backed up.

Why do the long tubes say for off road use only? I was looking at getting a set of the pacesetters because ive heard good things and seems alot of guys use them but why if its for off road use or is pacesetter just saying that?

because you won't pass inspection in an inspection state. Most items that will not pass CARB are designated as "OFF ROAD ONLY".

I have the Pacesetter Long Tubes, have retained my cats by simply moving them back about 14", generate NO CELs and would still fail inspection if applicable in my state by virtue of the fact that my cats are no longer in their stock location.


BTW, five+ years on mine with a custom ceramic coat done by a local coating company, not a hint of rust...

If yuo are asking about the Pacesetters, my LTs were not hard to install. They bolted in place with no issues aside from the ear on the bell housing on the trans on the pass side. This is a common clearance issue and since the case is made of aluminum, it is easy to saw it off.
