alero_ecotec is an unknown quantity at this point
So, im giving some definate thought to the Pacesetter heads on PFYC, for my ecotec. Mostly because they're the cheapest one's i could find at about 210. Does anyone have these? or have any opinion on them? I did a search but none of my questions really got anwsered. Also, at the moment, i just plan on going from the header to the stock cat and exhaust, and not upgrading the rest at the moment. I should still notice improvment right?

And this might belong in the Ecotec section, but nothing ever gets anwsered there.

you mean heads or header? cuz I would think a worked head would run a bit more than 210

ok, yes you will notice a difference, the stock cat is ok for a while, the stock muffler and resonator might restrict the flow a bit, but anyways the pace setter headers are fine. i'd get em if i had a ecotec.

I'd like to know too. I'm SERIOUSLY thinking bout ordering these right now.

About how much gain you think i'll get? I also plan on getting the heat wrap as well... plus a high flow cat.

I already have full custom 2.25 dynomax catback exhaust and Injen WAI. I'm with the 2.4L.

So its worth I would think, $275 (Header, Wrap, Cat) + prolly what? $75 for install?

so like $350 give or take for 10hp... that works.

Me and a friend back home in Roanoke are gonna install it in a couple weeks. Will give a write up on how it is with the 2.4L in a few weeks after I get back from visiting my g/f parents in Alabama.
