That's my 2 cents. I've got stainless and it doesn't stay shiny and beautiful because there's constantly water, dirt, etc. staining it, but you can clean it to make it beautiful again. But it doesn't turn "Sienna red" either!



That combo is going to rust...it may take a while but it will.
no **** .. anything but stainless will rust eventually smartass...

it is kind of nice having their shop right here...but besides that i can say that after seeing their shop, using their products, and knowing their business practices....def the best, them and their business partner trifecta tuning fixed more then a few things on the turboed 2.4 that hahn did not get right...and couldnt fix...

the header in those photos doesn't look bad at all, just the coating came off for one reason or another. maybe someone just forgot to chem bathe it first. send it to the mfgr and have it recoated.
