Pacesetter Exhaust
 

Well i wanted to start a new thread incase anybody in the future does a search for this.......

Anyways, about a week ago i emailed this place and asked if the pacesetter exhaust would fit the 3.4. This is what they said.......

Normally this is one option, but in some cases this doesn't hold true. I did some checking on your Alero and found a Walker exhaust look up page. If you look carefully, the Walker exhaust is the SAME for either engine. The parts that change are the cat piping and crossover on the engine. The exhaust itself appears to be exactly alike otherwise.


This makes me believe you can use the Pacesetter exhaust on your 3.4 liter Alero. You already have our ordering link. If you need more details, please don't hesitate to respond. We await your order.



So to anyone who still doesnt think it will fit our cars, think again;)

I was already set up to buy this exhaust because alerored04 told me it would fit, but then i read this email and thought it would be good to share with everyone. To help out the other guys with 3400's who want a cheaper exhaust:coolio:

Thank you again alerored for letting me know about this exhaust.

one other question, how big is our stock exhaust???????

Im pretty sure the pacesetter one is 2.5, just incase anybody wants to know.


Oh and i will use this thread to post up pics of the exhaust when i get it, im going to order it tomorrow!!!! finally!lol

i might have to look into one for my car if it is in fact 2.5" unless i can find a shop to it cheaper. :p

lol dude you need some practice on searching, its 2" stock

actually it's about 1.75".

umm lol no, its 2"

i just got my cat back no more then 2 weeks ago and i asked them if they could check to see the size of the stock pipes just to satisfy my curiousity and they pulled out the measuring tape right in front of me and it was 2" exact

i think its actually 1-7/8 lol

jon, your a damn goof!! lol

what year is your car? i know i asked the guy that did my exhaust what size the stock pipe was but it was oh so long ago i forget. i do think different years had different sizes though.

Final cost=$263.52

Just placed the order. I dont know when i get it, but when i do i will deff. update everyone.

as for now, im just waiting.................still waitinglol;)

2000 but i also have the 3.4 L so that might have something to do with it as well

Glad i could help ya billy. That is a really good price for a full exhaust, my custom setup ran me like $300 with a muffler and tip which this setup comes with, so this is a pretty sweet deal. Like i said before make sure to post a sound clip for us.

I will post up a soundclip if i can find out how to put it on here, lol. and i will put pics up too.

Got my exhaust today!!!!! it onyl took 2 days!!!! now i gotta wait till my step dad has time to help me. Its dual outlets too, it looks nice though, cant wait to get this thing on!:yahoo::yahoo:

pics or death

be sure to get a audio clip of what it sounds like, im kinda curious ^_^

I can take some pics of the exhaust while its off for now, then when i get it on i will take pics and do a soundclip.

Patience my friendslol;) beleive me i dont have patience, i want to get it put on right now! haha

awesome, glad to hear you got it already!

a little update on whats going on......

Im installing the exhaust tomorrow morning. Oh and its a dual outlet exhaust incase people didnt know. It looks very nice. But the one thing im worried about is that since its not coated, or stainless steel like the borla, its probably gonna rust out in about 2 years.

has your current exhaust rusted out?



i didnt think so.

how about those pics?

Pics
 

Bump..


Where are they.. lmao

lol sorry guys, i didnt take pics of it while its off, but i can do that tomorrow when i pull everything out. PATIENCE;) I cant wait to get this in tomorrow, but i will try and remember to take pics of it before it goes on.

I'm beginning to think he has the same inabilities with the shutter button that he has with the search button

hmmm i have a problem with the shutter button.....wtf are u talking about!?

Just put the exhaust in, it took a good 2 hours. We had to grind off the bolts holding on the old exhaust, then we had to cut it in half to get it out. But putting the new one on was much easier, it sounds pretty good in low RPMs, but its weird, when i hit the pedal it isnt that loud in the high RPMs. But it sounds pretty good, it looks awesome. I didnt have to make a cutout either. I will get pics on here in a little, i just need to take a shower and do some work around here quick. But i will get the pics and soundclip.

Im gonna have to wait till tomorrow to get pics and a soundclip up cause its raining pretty hard right now, and its starting to get dark already!!! god damn, haha.

Tomorrow will be the day;) You guys will just have to wait a little longer to seelol

glad it worked out for you. Im glad to hear that it evens out on higher rpm, that means it will have less rasp and sound nice at highway speed. Most of the time only straight through or very aggressive mufflers are loud at high rpm. Cant wait to hear it. Glad we could save you some $$.

Bah....anticipation! Get those darn pics on here already lol. Im really thinking about getting that exhaust, but want to see what it looks like first, oh and sound like, if you can get a sound clip on here too! I know it takes time, so just get it on here as soon as you can...!

I forgot where to go to put up a soundclip, so someone tell me. Its not the greatest quality soundclip but it will do.....i guesslol

one thing is for sure. i dont like the tips. lol

I'm not crazy about the tips either but at the price you got it, you can't go wrong!

You can go to exhaustsoundclips.com if you want.

I actually like the tips alot, i think they look good

maybe they arent photogenic lol

Those look sick man. I didn't know that they were dual exhaust though? On the picture on that one website for this exhaust system, it only looks like a single. But that does look darn nice man. :thumb: :pimp:

Thanks, yea i like it a lot. Its loud in lower RPMs, but when i step on it, it isnt that loud. When im on the highway its pretty loud too. My car now idles around 800 RPMs, it used to idle around 1,000-1,200 RPMs.

Im sorry i didnt get the sound clip up last night, im at school now, when i get home i will try and get it up. Its not the best quality, i apologize for that, but people, this exhaust sounds very nice and its only $268. www.carstuff.com is where i got mine and it only took 2 days to get to my house.

im getting very annoyed, i posted the video on youtube and on exhaustsoundclips.com and i cant find it on either one!

if your in park and your revving the engine it wont be as loud as if your in gear and giving it gas.

i know this is the v6 section, but will this:
