Which is better for intercooler tubing the 304 Stainless Steel, or the Alunized Stainless Steel????

Also can they both be welded with a Wire welder, or stick welder???
I don't have a aluminum welder so thats out of the question.
Any help on choosing which on to use for my Intercoole Tubing??

FWIW, several of the turbo companies use aluminzed steel tubing for the intercooler piping.
If I were to make some for myself I would probably go with aluminized steel, then jet hot coat it.

Ok, it looks like I will use the 3inch Aluminized SS for the intercooler piping. ITs also about $20 cheaper than the 304 SS.
I have true duels right now as well that dump at the axle and I plan on getting the BMR relocated Pan hard bar so I can run my 2.5 inch exhaust out the rear. Should I use the Aluminized SS for this as well or the regular stainless steel since its EXHAUST.
IT will be welded up against regular mild steel if that matters?
