Re: [DML] DMCH performance exhaust (and other stuff)

[Martin Gutkowski <martin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All

Can we differntiate between "rust" per se (ie corrosion that will one 
day lead to the failure of the product) and surface oxidisation, which 
tends to occur even on stainless steel systems, and is unlikely to cause 
failure.

The UK system comes with a lifetime guarantee and is made from 304 
stainless. Although you would be responsible for removal/refitting in 
the event of a problem. This is the nature of the motor trade :-(

FWIW I recently read a similar gripe on the Alpine forum from someone 
who had fitted a free-flow stainless system for a GTA Atmo from 
Mecaparts. The manifold cracked after 18 months and was not covered 
under warranty. I'm looking into using the DeLorean manifolds from 
stainless-exhaust.com and supplying to the Alpine community.
