Anybody taken the "cheap header plunge"?
Hey all! Before I ask, I have researched this, but have not found much. I assume it's like anything else. You get what you pay for...
That being said, is anyone running Pacesetter LT's on their 3.8? How'd they fit? Good/bad things to say? I'm not expecting RIPP results, but wanted to see if anyone had any feedback. Thanks!

The only thing I regret is not getting them wrapped before installation.

I installed the obx racing stainless long tubes a couple of years ago. Noticeable improvement in mid range torque. My3.8 is supercharged and interestingly the headers did not seem to change the absolute WOT performance but highway cruise performance was improved in that it sails over hills it used to downshift for so it seems to have altered the shape of the torque or HP curve. No leaks, no rust, no issues so far except I had them ceramic coated and the coating is coming off. Head shields on plug wires where they are near the headers and no burnt wire problems.
The only thing I regret is not getting them wrapped before installation.

Good to know. I'm not supercharged. Mine is a 6-speed, 3.73's.
These the ones?
