Default schedule 10 stainless steel piping

has anyone on here used this stuff to make there hot side? It is a hell of alot thicker and holds heat in better than mild steel. I am having my turbo kit redone and using this stuff, not sure why more people don't use it more?

It's more pricey. Good stuff though.

Its not that much more than mild steel really, a ubend cost 20 bucks and a mild steel bend is 14. Can't compare the two in quality.

I use the stuff, and also see it used everywhere. Ive made a couple sets of headers and hot sides. Its the cheapest stuff I could find also...stainless that is. Its not going to stress crack like thin wall tubing either. Quality wise it is just as good as anything else...its not all shiny and polished... but who really cares.

I built my hot side out of SCH 10 stainless from Ace Stainless. No url allowed, but you can figure it out.

He has super fast shipping, and much better prices than McMaster.

I had some special bends, needing tight radius and whatnot. Everything was done schedule 10 on mine except for the downpipe, which I went to 4" 14g stainless.
