So I am finally going to step up and get a new exhaust. I have been going back and forth between a stainless system and an aluminized system.

I have heard that the aluminized holds up better to heat, but how can it be better than stainless? :dunno

Anyones input would be greatly appreciated. :hail

I have an MBRP 409 stainless exhaust on my truck. If I were to do it all over, I would buy the 304 system. I bought a 304 muffler delete pipe from Diesel Manor, and the comparison to the 409 stainless is amazing! The Aluminum pipe will eventually rot out, where the Stainless won't. It all depends on your climate you live in. If you live in a cold climate where they use road salt, or near the ocean, don't even think of getting the Aluminum system.
