Finally after 4 long months my exhaust leak is totally fixed, no more ticking...no more go kart...no more stupid looks!!! I recommend to anybody who gets pacesetter headers or headers for that instance to not use the paper gaskets and go ahead and buy GM stock gaskets and safe yourself the trouble...yes some have not had problems with the paper gaskets but some have, in the end you buy the stock metal ones and you have no worries at all...in the long run its better. Now i can actually enjoying riding in my car instead of hearing a stupid leak. Thank God :D :D

Deffinetly a power gain from fixing the leak. After all those times under the car..or messing with the EGR. IF anybody thinks they have a leak i would say check the gasket and then work your way to other things ex. y-pipe or egr. Its probably the gaskets.96 3.8l green camaro Y87 <br />(Sold January 28th, 2004) New whip (02 Civic SI)<br />\"Out with the bad..in with the good; out with the bad in with the good!\"<br /> <a href=\"http://members.cardomain.com/themeangreen6\" target=\"_blank\">http://members.cardomain.com/themeangreen6</a>

I just had my gaskets replaced but I still have a rattle that appears to be coming from the y-pipe area when the car is in gear and when i start it up, any idea on what it could be???Ben<br /><br />1995 White/Black 3.4L<br />As far away from stock as possible<br /><a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/member_pages/view_page.pl?page_id=288292\" target=\"_blank\">My Site!!!</a><br /><a href=\"http://www.redlinevsix.com\" target=\"_blank\">RedLineV6</a><br />Rebuild and 3.4 T70 Turbo is complete<br />Details to come....

Like what kind of rattle is it? Is it constant when idleing and driving or just one? Go under the car and and tap a few things to see if anything is loose. Yes the sound has deff changed from the headers compared to the stock manifolds. It gets quieter in a good way and deeper but i guess it all depends on the type of muffler you have, that will vary in sound as well96 3.8l green camaro Y87 <br />(Sold January 28th, 2004) New whip (02 Civic SI)<br />\"Out with the bad..in with the good; out with the bad in with the good!\"<br /> <a href=\"http://members.cardomain.com/themeangreen6\" target=\"_blank\">http://members.cardomain.com/themeangreen6</a>
