43007, header install and emission solenoids??? plus remote start links?
Posted by Wtngclan, Jan-28-03 04:39 PM
hi i had a few questions...i'll try to make this quick..

i have a crack in my stock exhaust header and i was got a new one..something cheap so i desided on the black steel pacesetter header from nopionine.com ...i ordered it tonight..i was wondering about the quality of these headers and performance wise...also how hard would it be to install this yourself and are there any writeups on it anywhere? ..i really would rather not go to a mechanic considering i just paid a few g's to have my engine rebuilt...


also i'm hearing a ticking coming from the left fender well and my mechanic said that the 'emission solenoids' are going bad.. i was wondering what this exactly is and where i could get a new one and how to go about changing that..it's a ticking sound that is really loud and will come and go..but mostly it's there...


and the last question is about remote start for a stick shift...is this possible and are there any links for this or kits or anything....


thanks for hearing my questions..

pacesetter sucks balls. i have had one on my car for about 2 years now and first of all they didnt fit right so i had to pay to have them installed. then about 8 months ago the downpipe gasket blew out. now they are buzzing like a mf from the flex joint and my car sounds like a 2stroke. the did give a good gain on the bottom end tho. I just ordered new ones from airmass. i should have just spent the money on quality in the first place.
