I had bought the second cheapest on ebay 4 years ago, I believe I paid. $102.36 I also believe it had free shipping, the one I got was a one piece 4-2-1 header, was a really big pain to install,
.
The headers made a really big difference on the 1.6 engine, another thing I've seen people do is port and polish just the exhaust side since it is a little restrictive, I might be going that route if I don't swap an sr20 into my se,
.
I believe there is a ga16 forum I don't remember the exact web address at the moment, maybe someone has some headers for sale for cheap, or a port & polished head even
.
Another thing remove your valve cover and check out the wear on the top timing chain tensioner, that's how my engine went

Idk about pacesetter. No experience with them on a ga16, but my friend had a pacesetter header on his old jetta and that thing was crap. Definitely think the ebay header I had on my car was better than that thing. I would just get the ebay one and call it a day. My $.02

Get the header for the qg18de(00-06 1.8L Sentra) The header bolts up and the piping is 2" all the way back to the cat. I bought the same 1 piece header posted above, it's a nice piece but it doesn't have a full downpipe, it was originally designed for the 1.6. The one for the 1.8 sentra goes all the way back and it's a 2 inch inside diameter. est buy out there for the ga imo.

I used to go on that forum daily ga16forum.com before i blew the trans on my 1.6 200sx loved that car really good on Gas and the heAder does make a hell of a diffrence on them.

The 1.8 header has all the right ports? For egr and 02?

There was a guy on the other forum selling a Hotshot GA header. I don't know if it's still for sale though.
