Yea he got a pacesetter Monza catback for his hyundai. it was Quieter and sounded like some sort of dead animal was inside the resonator.-i was wondering about their headers tho, they make 4-2-1's and they dont LOOK half bad.

Stay away from pacesetter all together, I have seen the welds on the headers crack personnaly. If you want headers, look into hotshot and one other one. The other brand's name is on the tip of my tongue right now but I cant remember exactly what it is.

I used a complete PaceSetter System from the header to the muffler for about 24 months. Never had a problem with any of it.

The sound of the muffler was mild at cruising speeds, and did sound nice under throttle.

O - i ordered some sportmax 925's ,too, 18"

The black finish paint isn't high temp, and will burn off within the first day of use. I would recommend stripping the paint off and repaint it with quality high temp paint.

I have a 5zigen fireball 2.5" with a Hotshot header on my S14. Sound is ok, not too loud. Bought the exhaust used at a cheap price.
