Hey Everyone,
I have a 94 GT w/ the list of regualar bolt on's. I need a new mid pipe, and am considering an upgrade from what is currently on there. I have been looking around and am seeing adds for stainless steel x-pipes and aluminized x-pipes. Is there a difference between them besides $70-$90. Do they last longer or better in any way, and if so is it worth the extra cash?
Thanks,
94mustang
Stainless is much more resistant to corrosion than Aluminized.

Exactly..... Go stainless.... aluminized is just regular exhaust pipe with like an aluminum coating on it and will still rust, stainless wont, it might change color slightly, but wont rust.

Sounds to me that you need to hit up a race shop or muffler shop that can work stainless, especially with forced induction.
