    Hi,

    I'm planning to replace the header on my 1998 Integra GS-R. I've
    been trying to read up on the differences between ceramic and stainless,
    but haven't found a lot of answers.

    Also per the team-integra.net site (http://www.team-
    integra.net/sections/articles/showArticle.asp?ArticleID=430) it sounds like
    the installation is fairly easy for either a one part or two part header.
    My one question is how is the bottom part attached to the exhaust? The
    article makes it sound like there's no welding...

    Thanks,

    I guess to clarify, I of course meant ceramic *coated* headers. I've
    seen a lot of people question whether they would rust in winter
    climates (Chicago's salted roads) but not a lot of answers. Currently
    ceramic coated and stainless headers seem to be the same price, so
    that's not a consideration.

    Thanks,
