Get the ceramic coated ones. They wont rust as bad/ as fast as the hts coated ones.

The HTS won't rust until you nick or scratch it from installation, and it's not hard to scratch it off.

also the ceramic coating will hold in a little more heat than the HTS and help keep underhood temps down some.

so since the hts comes off easily if i scratch it etc what if i bought the hts headers an then put that thermo or what ever exhaust wrap to keep temperatures down would that be the same as the ceramic coated pretty much?
