I am considering buying some parts for my car but haven't heard much about the. If anyone can help out that would be great.
I am considering........
Pacesetter ceramic coated headers
Rk sport under drive pulley
Rk sport catback
If there is any thing that is way better let me know. I would rather spend the cash than buy crappy parts.
Is it still speeding if the speedometer dosen't work???
Well to be honest, I have always been a have of custom exhaust kits, not pre-made ones.
Essentially pick out the muffler and tip you like (or if the muffler already has one on it thats great too), get yourself a nice high flow cat and a resonator (if you want one, I recommend it) and bring it all to a exhaust shop and have them weld it on.
9 out of 10 times it will cost less then a pre made kit adn you dont have to settle if you dont like a certain aspect of the kit
Just my .02
I have the pacesetter ceramic coated header, rksport ( magnaflow ) catback ( single exit ) and also a magnaflow high flow cat, as well as a RSM lightweight crank pulley, essentially what you are looking at, and I love the combo. My car pulls real hard from about 3300 onward, if your doing the header, think about investing in some polyurethane motor mounts. You can get them for 65.00 from Karo at carcustoms.net and you can install them in about a half hour. They will not only prevent you from your header cracking, but they will also help you out a little bit performance wise. Just another piece to the puzzle kinda thing. Hope this helped some, and good luck with your desicion and let us know what you think afterwards when you do choose.

headers good.
pulley? go with rsmracing.com, same size, lighter, same effects, and no light dimming from underdriving.
catback, read the faq, or here
http://magnaflow.com/05news/magazine/05sportc.asp build your own. easy to do, buy quality parts, dont half arse it and most times if you show around you spend less. theres alot of lazy people on the forums that end up paying an arm and a leg and then complaining, but not shoppin around is their own fault.
I have the RK Sport Underdrive Pulley, works fine and was somewhat noticeable.
As far as the Cat-back goes, I would go with either Magnaflow or Borla...sounds much better in my opinion. The RK Sport one comes with an canister muffler (which I personally dislike) and no resonators.
The pacesetter ceramic coated header should be good as well.

Thanks for the feed back. I'm have a shop do the exaust. I'm going to do the mounts and headers but i'm waiting on the pulley until later. Also What size resantor is good?

You're welcome
Find the biggest one you can...my only suggestion. If you do a search you'll find plenty of part #s and such.

I have the Pacesetter header and I like it. No problems and a decent gain in the upper rpm's .
The longer the resonator the quieter/deeper it will sound.
