Isn't the Hooker catback made only of mild steel? Only stainless for me, one less thing to worry about.

I was looking at the Hooker system last month as Tybrne had a killer sale on them. I couldn't find anyone that heard what they sound like so I moved on. They look like a good basic system and I did talk to a tech at Hooker who said they are between the Magnaflows and Stingers for loudness.......

Good luck
