Ok... Why are coated headers so much better than chrome? Why do chrome headers have a tendency to rust? I live in Oregon, which is a very wet climate. But, I am getting the chrome Mac's for $290, that is the reason I was planning on purchasing them.
ceramic coated headers are better for holding in heat and not rusting.
The chrome probably flakes off because of the expansion/contraction under heat. This exposes the metal underneath and that rusts. That's my guess anyway...Ceramic is better at dealing with heat.
Well I dont want to drop the coin on ceramic so I am going with these cheap chrome Macs. I think I will not skimp on the mid pipe however and get the Mac.
