I've heard some people... not all, some are happy. BUt I'v eheard problems with proper alkignment when installing and having to get some custom work to make it fit. And others have had no problems.

Its cheap because its made in Mexico from painted mild steel. I used to have the pacesetter headers and I still use my pacesetter exhaust piping (got rid of the muffler though). I did have to work a little to get them to fit, but the price was right and they've held together fine for years. I got rid of the headers because I got a turbo. I tossed the muffler because the tip was rusting and didn't look good. I still use the exhaust piping, but with a magnaflow muffler. Its a decent, cheap way to get a 2.5" mandrel bent exhaust.

yeah, they're made of cheaper stuff and they don't pay millions for advertising and pretty models :)
i guess its a good start for a broke mofo who just bought a turbo kit and them you could upgrade later.
or look for a used greedy/hk$/etc. since they're made of stuff that'll last a looong time
