What is the difference between 'Advance' and 'Pacemaker' extractors
I got a quote on both for my VT and Advance is almost 200$ more expensive, Is it worth the extra?
Yes Advance claim more power on a stock car due to its design, larger primaries and press bent. They just wont fit up to tall cars, such as my VX with Variable steering. So check that. Once the mods some on, Pacemaker and Genies show their worth. The Advance design gives better low end torque, where apparently the Pacemaker is more middle band. One is interference design (Advance) and made is South Australia, with a mild steel and stainless version. Pacemaker is Tuned design, mandrel bent, made from mild steel and in NSW and Melbourne possibly.
thanks for the advice guys.
i think ill go pacemaker. im not planning on doing any major engine mods so they should do well, almost 200$ cheaper aswell
Look at alternatives like Wildcat as well if you not gonna do to many mods. HM headers some of the best for standard cars, but more expensive again. Talk to the cat man 'Not and Abba Fan' to hook you up. He knows his stuff about extractors, exhaust etc.
whats cheap and good? whilst were on the subject? just because ive heard with pacemakers you have to get a new y pipe and cat?
ive been looking for something that i can bolt onto my engine and standard cat without any other custom peices?
any help would be great?
Wildcat would not even enter the equation. If you want cheaper, go Advance as they'll outperform brands like Wildcat all day long. If you want long term build quality or plan future modifications, go Pacemaker.
You don't need a new cat for pacemakers. Why would different extractors effect whether or not you need a new cat?
