Surface rust on coated pacesetters????
Is anyone else having this problem? My headers are about 5 months old and are already getting little rust spots all over the place. I thought the coating was supposed to stop rust. I would have bought the cheaper uncoated ones had I known this in advance. Oh well. They were still very cheap. I guess you get what you pay for.

And even quality stainless will show some slight surface rust but that is still the only way to go if you're concerned about real rust.

though i did see a pair of slp long tubes on ebay a while back for cheap that had rust problems and there stainless steel and coated, so nothing is immune to nature.
