A buddy of mine is getting one, he use to work at leon's as a exhaust guy. His name is Greg in case you might know him. We're going to make a whole bunch of exhaust when he gets it. Greg and I might stop by sometime if that's cool. I'll let you know. Thanks

Is there any other type of metal that's good for exhaust besides stainless steel and titanium?

That can also be used if you dont mind your exhaust rusting.

I prefer no rust, but thats just me.

That's weird because all the exhaust shops around here only use Aluminized Steel. And stuff rusts fast here in humboldt.

So I'm going with 3 inch aluminzed steel($3.50 a foot locally), that's going to be spray coated so it wont rust.

I'll post the final product when I'm dont. Thanks for the help guys.
