I notice most people swap exhaust systems before adding headers. Would it be a good idea to put an SS/SC exhaust and a Pacesetter header on my car?

that is what i have with stock cat and magnaflow muffler, it sounds so perfect, howeve ri think the 2.5'' exhaust is slowing me down slightly, so i will be switching to 2.25 this week, i will let you know if it changes anything. also my pacesetter sucks and has a leak, but i think i am the only one with that problem.

Do you have the painted or ceramic header? So you basically have SS cat-back and just swapped out the muffler?

Just note...the header is apart of the exhaust system. You're referring to a cat-back system.

i have the painted ... you should go with the ceramic. the paint came off in 5 minutes. i only got it because i bought it off a guy in town that hadnt opened it yet and sold it to me for cheap. it is a nice looking header though, and it hasnt rusted yet or anything. just make sure you install it right. and yes i have the ss exhaust with a magnaflow muffler. or i did, i just went today and got it put down to 2.25 with a 22'' glasspack/resonator to keep it quiet. sounds almost exactly the same but i will be honest and say it feels slightly peppier. but my car is still slow because of something the dealership did.
