How is the OBX header and cat back exhaust? i was planning on getting in since everyone said pacesetter is garbage. any comments on tone wise? install ease? performance gains noticable? any commments welcome
I am not sure who said pacesetter is garbage because OBX is the same design as pacesetter. Most of the post i have seen Pacesetter is recommended by most. I have not and happy with it

PS headers are not garbage. I have one for each Cav. Now the exhaust on the other hand sounds ok but the muffler looks like junk. PS coated header is the best choice for long term use.
spotabee or what ever his user id is is the 1 that keeps saying that
considering obx and weapon r header are all copies of either pacesetters or rk sports headers
ive got the pacesetter coated on mine and love it
the cat back needs a resonator to sound better , personally i not into the big tips
so what go with the PS Armor coated header and do what for the exhaust?
So.....wait...wait wait......I could buy the cat back.....but take the cat off....or put another one there, buy a 24+" resonator and even a new muffler, and it will still weld up find, or is it a bolt on kind of thing....i'm confused.....cause i thought you couldn't weld stainless steel.....

I hear the OBX is decent for the 2.4 motor.
As far as cat-backs, Magnaflow or Borla sound great and work great. If you want to save some cash, get a custom mendrel bent one at a local performance shop near you.

Yeah you can run a resonator after the cat if you want to have virtually no raspiness.

Whatever you do, stay away from the Pacesetter catbacks. Everyone will agree. They are crappy and will rust out and fall apart after a few months. My recommendation would be an OBX stainless steel header and b pipe, and do a custom 2.25" catback with any decent 2.25" inlet muffler.

i know several cavs with the pacesetter exhaust , and all have had them a minimum of 6 months , and not 1 has had a problem
they can use a resonator though

I'm not the only one who will share my opinion on pacesetter catback exhausts. Ask around.
