Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

    I would say its all about what you want to look at man.... I would say Ceramic.... If you get the stainless... They change color after a while from the heat of your exhaust.....

      i would go with stainless because it doesn't rust. the color changing is annoying, but you can polish it off with mag and aluminum polish from time to time. later.

            I was planning on getting a header for my car soon. Do the ceramic ones rust easy or is there any difference in performance or is it all just look? And I'm not going for a chrome look, just something other than nasty, rusty ass stock that will boost performance a bit.

                if you can get the ceramic coated headers...they are okay....stainless steel headers are mainly for looks and durability b/c they resist corrosion...the ceramic coated ones might provide better insulating properties....especially the ones that have the ceramic coating both on the outside and inside the piping IMO

                      I say you should just do what you can afford. I personally would go ceramic for heat insulating reasons....and that is what I did.

                            i dont like stainless because of the colors it turns, and how any oil from your hands leaves marks.
