I honestly wouldn't waste my money on them. I had their dual catback set-up on my Neon and it rusted out in about a year. And I live in AL, so not too much of a salt worry. But tnen again, a Neon doesn't put out nearly the exhaust temps. Supposedly they have gotten better than they used to be. I've seen a few on 7's but they don't seen to be very good.

They're crap for rotaries.I've seen lots of cars with them on it.My cousins civic has one on it for 3 years with no problem.They sound good but the muffler itself is ****.

Yeah, I would spend my money towards racing beat. The pacesetter products are cheap, functional but cheap. I have been using a pacesetter header and cat back on my Jeep for a couple of years now. It sounds ok, but the header rusted up immediately and looks like ****.

Pacesetter/Monsa sounds good on an X1/9. I wouldn't use it on a rotary.
