Hooker catback question

For all you guys that have the hooker catback, have you had problems with the aluminized pipes rusting away. I am a little hesitant in buying something that isnt stainless since I live in NE where they salt the roads in the winter. Let me know your experience. Also, any sound clips would be great.

I wouldn't worry about it. IMO stainless steel is a waste of money. Although the pipes may rust, they will definately last (in good condition) the life of the vehicle.

I don't have any rust at all on mine, I've had it for 4 months.

Here's a clip with longtubes, no cats:

I tried finding my clip with stock manifolds and both cats, but I can't find it

Check out my other thread for track runs, you can hear it there too.

Hey BlakeW5, you live in Kentucky I saw, do you get any snow there and if you do, do you use salt on the roads. Thats my main concern. My car is driven year round.
