pacesetter Headers
So will both of these fit a 200SX SE-R? One is an old model and one is new? One other question, headers my car is all stock but WAI what would it do to the sound of my car?

First question is why are you going to waste money on an inferior header?

Second question is, do you have a GA16DE or SR20DE? The black header if for GA, the chromed one is for SR.

Get an SSAC knockoff on ebay, you can get a 2.5" for around a $100 usually (will require some searching though). They mainly have the 2.25" on ebay for about $150...

We made the same Power with a Pacesetter vs. the Gen 6 HS .... 11:1 SR20DE, S4 cams, and about every good bolton possable ... made 168 FWHP with the HS and made 167 with the HS ...even after ECU reset and driving for a while redynoed and only made a couple more with the HS after using a wideband and richening up the fuel ratio ....And then the HS cracked time after time ... Cheepo PS is still going strong after 3 different cars an well over 100K miles ...

Pacesetter is a great deal for a basic NA car , and they are steel so they dont crack like the stainless headers .... only downfall is the paint , but if you spend a bit extra and have them coated or buy the coated ones they are great .

.. I now have the PS on my Track car and it still works good ...

Ran a PS on my brothers 240SX and it made a bunch of seat of the pants power ... and was cheep ...and again not stainless so we can beat it up and not crack ...

Nope,

Something along these guidelines, note that's a 2.25" one though...

Chowie, what is up with your infatuation with Pacesetter? There are better options nowadays for our cars. SSAC headers, VRS, HKS, Greddy exhausts, etc... Hell, even Meineke could throw together a better exhaust than the Pacesetter for you. I'm not trying to be a dick. Just trying to help.

That's actually very true.

When you look at Pacesetter primaries and compare them to SSAC you will think SSAC is on Viagra
