Exhaust Discoloration Question

[memphismike_imp]

If you change out your exhaust to an aftermarket Chrome Exhaust and/or Slip On, will you still get the Discoloration(bronzing) like on the stock exhausts? Also...If you go with a "Black" exhaust", will the discoloration eventually show thru the Black as well? Thanks gang!

Mike,

All un-coated stainless single wall headers will turn bronze after several heat cycles. Single wall chrome headers will rainbow color near the engine where temps are highest. Double wall chrome headers like the Delux has will not discolor as the outer wall does not get hot enough. Single wall stainless headers can be Jet-Hot coated with a chrome or colored finish that will not discolor even under very high temps. Cost is under $200 plus your time to remove and ship your header to them. Here is my Jet Hot coated header which still looks perfect after a year on my bike. Cheers.
