Pacesetter exhaust suck ***....

They are the worst quality for a catback. The catback piping is still the same size as stock yet you only get a POS muffler. It might sound okay but its not. IMHO buy a stainless steel borla or edelbrock muffler and have a muffler shop put in 2.5" piping.

what are you wasting your time on cat back exhausts for?

mufflers may make a fraction of a difference to power, and make it sound different.
if you have any performance goals, theres no point getting a cat-back exhaust.
by the time the exhaust gas has passed through the extremely restrictive cat (as they ALL are)it has lost 90% of its energy and it doesnt realy matter where it goes from there.
if you ust want it to sound better, just experiment with different mufflers and tips, nothing too expensive is needed.

ive dynoed cars for many years, and cat back exhausts would have to be the biggest waste of money out there performance wise.

I didnt say that I had the pacesetter exhaust. I was just pointing out to some people where they could get one if they wanted. I got the cat taken off my car , and i think it was restricting pretty much. I wasnt getting too much air flow out of the exhaust before i took it off, and now there is much more flow
