Greddy vs Tanabe

I think the greddy piping is made of 409 stainless, which is not very corrosion resistant. You are in a warm climate so you may not have the salt issues

I think the greddy piping is made of 409 stainless, which is not very corrosion resistant. You are in a warm climate so you may not have the salt issues we do up north, but I am willing to bet it will still show some surface rust on the piping over a few years.

I am speaking of the Greddy, not Tanabe. I would reccomend the Tanabe for that reason.
