DC JDM 4-1, is it really worth it to get the stainless?
I am ordering a DC JDM 4-1 within the next week or so but i cant decide if i should get the stainless header or the ceramic, the price difference is about $100 canadian.
I was thinking for that price difference if i should get the ceramic and wrap it with header tape, would it be worth it to go this route? Or just stick with the stainless?
TIA

Stainless steel headers are less prone to cracking than ceramic ones, and you should never wrap a ceramic one. The ceramic ones are a bit better insulated, but not as good as a stainless one with header wrap.

A friend of mine has the stainless one & the only thing is the flange @ the head is not stainless but just mild steel & it is now rusted.
