im now the proud owner of the only 03 cav with a 3" stainless exhaust headers back with a modified pacesetter header, the system is amazing, and its not raspy and it doesnt sound like a weed wacker lol, and no i didnt lose all my bottom end power, it actually picks up quicker, has better throttle response and more power throughout the rpm range. the guys at RD Fabs were great, ryan should have the pics up soon and i will post additional pics later.

Where did they put the other headers?
The only time my eco has had headers is when I had one on the car and one in the trunk.
i wish i could have headers on my car.
I'm still confused at reading the first post.....not to mention the fact that he has headers?!?
whats confusing??? headers=exhaust manifold, or did i miss something????

yeah last we checked cavaliers only had 1 header......not 2 headers.......do you see the difference, or do u want to be a complete ass for longer?!?
wow. this thread is awesome.
After the laughing and jokes stop...
Im actualy starting to feel motivated to go 3" to give it a try. I hear nothing but back and forth opinions on how it hurts and helps performance,and want to give it a try. Plus some of the top n/a guys are running 3" so why not?
I realy want to see pics. I bet its a pretty looking setup coming from rdfabs haha. Any chance of a sounds clip? Oh and what are running cat/resonator wise?
i think he means a full 3" header back system, and they modfified the pacesetter header. if not than im as lost as you are!
ya, soza has it right, i know our cars only have one header, i was saying they replaced every thing from the HEADER back, and im using the pacesetter ceramic coated header, a hi flow pacesetter metal core cat, no resonator, the headers had the stupid 2 bolt flange and ball cut off and the welded on a v-band flange, they also put in a AEM wideband O2 for me, the system has a nice deep aggressive tone, i will get some sound clips and movies up when i get home, im outta state right now, but even ryan said "It's a masterpiece, a work of art" they are a great company to work with.

not alone for long though. this winter i wanted to go 3" with a tsudo header. i'v got a 3A Racing flow- through muffler on my stock system right now. this guy in a v-6 auto mustang didnt beleive i could have anything less then a full exhuast and cams. it sounds really LOUD and beefy. $65 bucks at kragen, who woulda guessed?
Listen F***ers. FASTERTHANAHONDA is a joke because I WORK FOR HONDA. I'll talk @!#$ about Fords to, that doesn't mean I can beat a 12 second mustang.
We know what you meant, we were just giving you a hard time.
you know, you guys can be real dicks some times, but hey, its all good. lol
