Question MBRP 4" aluminized or SS

OK which to go with. Stock exhausts are aluminized and after 8 years no signs of rusting out. SO is Aluminized just as good and sound the same as lets say the SS409 piping. I dont see a reason for the 304

Just put my exhaust on a few weeks ago. The original was on it and it showed some wear. All depending on where you live is how long it will last(winter and salted streets). I went with the 409 SS and like it a lot better than the stock alum.

I'm in Alaska and despite the winter im going to be buying the 4" aluminum since my stock looks fine. I just want the better sound. Kind of lame you have to spend more to strait pipe tho, and its alot more. Be nice if they sold a strait pipe kit instead.

correct me if I'm wrong people, but its my understanding that oem is in fact stainless not aluminized steel. but then maybe that was aftermarket hype??

stock is definately not SS with the 00 model. Maybe later years but I am not sure. My current exhaust is just fine with no problem but want the additioanl power and sound. I bought the aluminized 4inch mbrp from thorobreddiesel.com yesterday.
