Hotshot....they have a 4-2-1 design. &nbsp;Greddy makes a good set, but some say they have a problem with cracking. &nbsp;Hotshot seems to be the headers 240 owners seem to like the best...imho. &nbsp; <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/blush.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':blush:'>

iirc, both (HotSHot & Greddy) have had a very recent redesign, the Hotshot to fit better, with more specific year designations, and the Greddy with thicker flanges.

personally i'm gonna go hotshot

hmm....I had this one girlfriend a ways back...oh wait, you meant for the 240? LOL <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/hehe.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':hehe:'>

for the s13-Hotshot. so far, I've only heard of pacesetter or hotshot for the s13, and everyone I've talked to with experience with pacesetter said it isn't as good.

i heard that hotshot eliminates your catalitic converter....is this true? i need mine living in a highly populated area where emissions are a b*tch. &nbsp;i want a hotshot from all the good things i've heard about it but i'm not gonna want it if it gets rid of your cat

I just installed a Greddy header on a 95 S14 last Friday. &nbsp;It was a very nice piece, all stainless. &nbsp;The Greddy replace the stock manifold, nothing else. &nbsp;This would be ideal for street cars where emissions is going to be an issue. &nbsp;It took about 4-5 hours to install.

I have a Hotshot on my racecar. &nbsp;It replaces the cat and will not pass emisssion. &nbsp;There is a plug for the EGR and O2 sensor. &nbsp;The header extends pretty far back almost to the drivers seat.
