    The coated also help keep the heat in and keep EGT's up. I would say they're worth the extra money.

    And if it were me I wouldn't get painted or coated, I would get stainless.

    Well for the money and since I don't really want an all out race truck the stainless just isn't in the budget right now.. Thanks for the info guys. I'm still new and learning.

    to be totally honest ,i thought i got lucky with the coated ,but after 2 years thayre peeling down by the collector.and i even wrapped mine,with header wrap after a year.painted always peel and rust up.and stainless arent worth the money as far as im concerned.my stainless gibsons turned black in a week,and rusted in 2 months.pic of the draw.if money is the issue ,id say painted.they all have downfalls.
