See if you can get inside for a tour some time...that might be interesting and we'd all like to see pictures!
Hey,that's a good idea! Especially if I tell them that I belong to KZR and members are interested in how their product is manufactured. I'll check their hours and see if I can do something!

Definitely worth looking into....
If you could, see if they have any exhaust components such as 4 to 1 collectors.... 1.5" ID for 1.5" OD Primary piping....
Do they just sell the header only?

Anyone with MAC experience like to share their thoughts on Pro's/Cons, tun-abilities, baffle options, installation issues, oil filter/drain plug considerations, long wear, customer service etc...

Now as much as I like the re-chroming or specifically ceramic coating idea, you're pretty much in the Kerker range plus pricing....
TB, what kind of pricing would cermic dipping cost... gestimates?
otakar, this one would concern me unless of course I'm miss understanding....
"They may be made cheap but they are inexpensive enough to be affordable for replacement every few years."
Replacement due to chrome/paint flaking or something else such as metal splitting, exhaust leakage, rust, rotting etc....
In researching, these pipes go for roughly $350... Pretty much the same as V&H... If I had to replace every couple of years, why not just go Kerker for the additional $150 and longevity...
As for all the Megaphone series pipes, regardless of who makes them, due to the design of the exhaust and for the header designs and lengths being almost identical... I'd believe they all will sound very similar... Yes/No?
I've never had one so can't speak from experience...
I'll see if I can find some you-tube sound tracks of the MAC on a KZ for comparisons...

My Kerkers are a lot bigger at the collector. I guess that is why there is more torque than the kerker.
