Paceshitter sucks. Racing Beat is the best you can buy, trust me...I have one. Get a ACT clutch.

MindTrain is another option for an excellent quality header.

Although I have heard of folks using the Paceshitter header with no problems, but I have heard of lots of people switchning theirs for a RB one. I have never heard of a problem with the RB header itself. However, the person who installs it can screw it up!! No comments Sean!!

Lots of folks have said they break really easy. i have even read about guys breaking them in the same week they were installed.

I picked up a Racing Beat header and 2 presilencers today for $100. Pretty good deal. Just wanted to say that the RB header is built EXTREMELY well, dont pass it up!

see i heard that the pacesetter header was the exact same design as the racing beat header, only made in mild steel.

I wish i had paid the extra for the stainless though, simply for the fact that mild steel doesn't hold up to the high temp rotary exhaust as well, and my header is like really rusted. I have only had it for like 15,000 miles.
