Ok, a customer bought this header from another company and was bragging about the quality of the header only to show me these 2 shots of the collector…The pics speak for themselves. ![http://www.xenozx.com/images/header/DSC03281.JPG](http://www.xenozx.com/images/header/DSC03281.JPG) ![http://www.xenozx.com/images/header/DSC03279.JPG](http://www.xenozx.com/images/header/DSC03279.JPG) ---

flange welds up by the head don’t look good either. Cold weld or wire speed to fast. Also, doesn’t look like the collector forms properly (hard to tell without a side pic), looks like the collector flange actually forms a restriction. > [@Lopros86](#): > > what are those white balls? styrofoam? they keep the moths out. ---

> [@Shockwave179](#): > > This just enforces the fact that I shouldn’t buy Pacesetter Longtubes. Pacesetter is a waste of money. Even if it looks OK and/or performs, their shit doesn’t last long and you’ll be replacing it within a year or two. I’d buy a used part of a better brand before I paid for a Pacesetter product. They’re usually just knockoffs of someone else’s design, but made with cheap materials and labor. Go for nothing or save for better. ---
