Topic: Exhaust options nearly broke

[NT-OUTBACK]

My exhaust is starting to rot off, and while I was searching around for exhaust options I found this (see link below). Has anyone used a Pacesetter exhaust system on their rig? I would love to buy an LCE exhaust, but they are little expensive for my taste. I suppose I could go to an exhaust shop, but I have seen to many hack jobs at those places.


BTW Anyone see a reason why this would not work on an 85? I noticed LCE's exhaust fits 85-95 I don’t see why the pacesetter would be different.

I need to do something in the next few months since my exhaust is not going to age like wine, well OK maybe Boones farm

PACESETTER is CRAP! do not use pacesetter, you will regret it later. there is a reason it costs way less than all the other headers, garbage is cheaper than good things

the answer   beside  what jim said  can only be answered  by asking where you are??

Thanks for the heads up,

Next week I will be living in Chico. So I guess my choices are LCE or Downey then? Any feedback on those systems?

I don't want something that is loud

You want one that has the thick flange, like 1/2" not the 1/4" like pacesetter!  They will work for a short time, until they warp and leak.  Anything that is good/high quality is gonna run ya like $400 plus just for the header!  I was gonna get a good header until I saw the prices, and decided that I'll get a header later down the road!  Got a stock manifold, and downpipe for free.     I got the large manifold style (older) than the header looking style manifold.  Told it has better scavaging properties!

The way to really look at it is.  Do I want to spend $500 for a header and a couple hundred more for the pipe, cat and muffler, or do I want to spend $500 for a complete exhaust system?  This helped me decide!
