BlackSS04 Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 if you don't wanna worry about the spark plugs with obx, then i say pacesetter. or you can go with the big $ headers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliChevyV8 Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 Right now I'm selling my dynatech header system and I am also throwing in my set of Taylor Thundervolt wires and two of them are lengthened so there are no issues with burning them. Let me know if you're interested! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS_bnoon_SS Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 if you don't wanna worry about the spark plugs with obx, then i say pacesetter. or you can go with the big $ headers. Several people have burned wires on their Pacesetters too. Just wrap the wires in multiple heat boots, or use tie wraps to tuck them away from the pipes, or get longer wires for the back two plugs to reroute them away from the pipes totally. For the cost and quality difference, go with OBX longtubes (cost is about a wash with Pacesetters and OBX since you have to fab up intermediate pipes for Pacesetters and OBX are true bolt ins). I've had AS&M, Pacesetters, and OBX in my hand and like the OBX the best, so that's what I put on my truck. OBX are 2.5" collectors though, just FYI, so 3" duals would need a collector change/modification. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddgtomahawk Posted October 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 Hey ok well i like the sound of the obx but will 2.5 collecter limit me in the future? ( I am adding super charger N.O.S. and coming around 550 to 600 horses( is not the original engine) also i notice most 2.5 headers actually are stepped down to 2.5 so if I cut that step down off and weld 3 inch it sould be the same right?

Yes, the 2.5 may hold you back in the future with SC and N20, so plan to cut off and rewed new colllectors on there. Not hard at all. In the meantime, bolt them in as sent and just modify the exhaust after you get the SC and N20. That way you don't have to worry about the torque loss of a dual 3" system until the SC gets on there.

BenKey Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 If you plan to modify your exhaust to the muffler anyway, save money on the headers and go with Pacesetters. Then you can use what you save to modify all the way back. I have had Pacesetters now for going on 2yrs and they look just as good or better than the $800 ASMs did after only one year. I have 3" pipe all the way back to my muffler with cutouts just before the muffler - single flo~pro muffler, dual in/dual out. Never used/seen the OBX, so not downing them.

BILLS04SS Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 (edited) I prefer coated dynatech's myself. Very high quality made header system. Yeah its a little pricey but you get what you pay for. Combined with Corsa Sport, it really sounds and performs very nicely. JMO b Forgot to mention that Dynatechs and Corsa are both true bolt on Mods. Edited November 1, 2007 by BILLS04SS (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
