Default WHICH HEADERS?

Hey guys whats up, i Recently order a catback and am planning on my first mod to be full exhaust.
What is the diff. between the different coatings on the headers? im pretty much gonna do MAC everything due to the cost and i relly dig the sound. How will the coating effect lifespan?

1MORE THING. Do they make a pro-chamber with cats?

Something happened with MAC's catalytic converter supplier and so they aren't making any catted products for a while until they can get their cats back. I dunno any details though.

And for headers, I heard ceramic coated is just the best way to go. I don't know why. I'm not much of a header pro either, but I know its better for heat resistance and will last longer than anything else you get. Ceramic is the best quality.

CEramic will last the longest but the hts coated will last just as long as your car so id go with them. They do make a prochamber with cats.
