Very sad to see that HKS still use aluminised mild steel for it's pipework.
So here's 1 distinct disadvantage over stainless steel - it bl00dy rusts.
The HKS on my new age STi was just over 2 years old when the backbox broke off from the pipework. Rusted through.
Loved the backbox and the sound so got a local exhaust fabricator to replace the pipework with stainless to replace the rotten mild steel.
If they do one in all stainless now, put me down, I'll have one.
