Should i go with coated or uncoated? I don't mind paying more if it helps to go with coated.

coated headers will keep underhood temps down. i read an article where they tested uncoated versus coated. uncoated were 415*F, coated were 210*F. that's the biggest benefit. plus they will not discolor. stainless, if they get extremely hot, will turn blueish.
