heat dissipation on the licp? Thats what you have a front mount intercooler for. This really is being overthought - it's a pipe. So long as it fits, doesn't fall apart and is mandrel bent, I doubt you'll see much, if *any* performance difference between any of them.

Once a steel pipe becomes heatsoaked it will take much longer for it to cool down in comparison to an aluminum pipe.

I'm not saying it'll be 10 times better than a heavier, steel pipe but it will transfer heat faster.

Then again, I wasn't downplaying stainless steel, I was downplaying mild steel which WILL rust.

The default is to 1010 steel for durability (our Breeze T-bolts can easily crush aluminum) but can be optioned to either stainless or aluminum

Before you consider what tvieira24 says, you might want to take a look at this thread and form an opinion of your own.

If you guys are having a debate on steel vs aluminum you might want to read:

Steel - http://www.nisei-evo.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=434

Aluminum - http://www.nisei-evo.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=31

They offer both so I'm sure they will give it to you straight!

Yeah this would explain your clear hostility and unneccessary attitude.
