New Cat Back Found!!!

Hey peoples I happened to stumble accross a new cat back system for our cars but there is only one problem they dont make a system YET for the 3.4L it is in PROTOYPE stage and will be out this fall. They only have the 2.2 eco and the 2.4l with a 2.25 dia. piping aluminized catback system. I emailed the guy there trying to explain that all alero models use the same exhaust system... Or am I wrong? Can someone help me beacuse Im on my 3rd muffler including the stock one and im pissed and i dont want to spend the $1000CAD for the borla.

Here is the link PT#88-1474
www.pacesetterexhaust.com

and this is where I found it for $256.35

thanks for the link, i like that exhaust system, pair that with some headers and that'd be sweet

Thanks for the link, I wish they made it in stainless I may get one when they come out this fall. I hate my stock muffler.

If it fits the Eco and 2.4 it will fit the 3400. Also 2dr/4dr doesn't matter.

i believe that is the same one they have on andy's auto sport, that has been on there for a while

[alero_ecotec]

what would the advantage to stainless be?.............and also, this bolts to the catilit converter doesnt it?...i mean, it doesnt make it so you dont need a converter right?

[Spilner521]

stainless doesnt rust so it will last a lot longer than mild steel. and yes, it bolts to the flange right after the stock cat....you wont need a new one. and what Grouch said...it'll fit any alero regardless of engine, coupe, or sedan.

i know this is probably a bad idea....but would a couple coats of high temperature black engine paint on the whole exhaust system help? (im talking about this new one)

As far as i can tell it's out now,
being as It lets me take it to the checkout.

But being as I live in canada the shipping and probly duty on it would make it not really that great of a deal.

[alero_ecotec]

i'd like to know the actual diameter of the piping however...and i'd like to know if anyone has it and how it sounds ect.


woops, now i see that it's a 2.25 diameter......but i'd still like to see if anyone has it and how they like it

If you guys have any questions feel free to call us at

i thought borla didnt make a exhaust for the ecotec by the way????

[alero_ecotec]

well, this exhaust was tempting at 1st, but after talking to alot of people over on j-body.org they said it rusts out realllly quickly, so scratch that idea

Yeah, with our wonderful Ohio winters, it probably would rust quickly

^^^ without a doubt, not to mention the crap load of salt that my city puts on the roads

I've heard mixed reviews on Pacesetter's MONZA cat-backs from visiting various forums. From what I gather, the paint slowly burns off which causes a bad smell then eventually it just burns off/chips off randomly and the pipes begin to rust. It is supposedly constructed from aluminized stainless steel. The tips also have a tendency to just fall off over time. The sound is great, though, but I would rather go with something that sounds great or better and lasts longer.

If you have it coated with some better paint or something to prevent rust, this would be a bargain deal.
