I have Mac LT's along with a Mac H-pipe. Love the sound, but the factory fed up didn't weld up on of the welds all the way so it was a huge 3 week long ordeal of trying to figure out where the exhaust leak was coming from. Its finally fixed, for the most part. Have a little bit of a leak only I can hear when I am driving up against like a guard rail or something but I dont really think that's a big deal.

no, i mean how did you manage to get a metal that doesn't rust by design, to rust? are you sure it's not just surface debris? stainless steel is designed so that it does not rust. i didn't think it was possible. i live in a very salty area myself, and my MACs look like total crap, and i'm replacing them next week. i hope my pypes holds up over time
