if you never ask you'll never know. so at least you asked and decided to play it safe.

Now WHY wouldn't you research before spending $80 odd dollars on exhaust wrap?? I bloody told you exactly what would happen, how and why. I refuse to resort to flash cards.

Standard headers are cast, and survive better. They might crack later though. that and they're tucked up all nice.

didnt think they'd rust up THAT quick?

Constant heat cycling speeds up the oxidation process 11ty fold...

I would have gone to the kitchen, collected a brown bag, dropped my dacks, pinched off a loaf in said bag, done up dacks, stickytaped bag, placed bag in envelope, and mailed it right to your face for being such a tool.


It's ok, sometimes when we herp, we also derp.
