Hey guys...
Getting ready to get my car inspected and then drop the tranny for a clutch swap...so when I do that I will be taking the catted Bassani X-pipe off and putting the good old MAC ProChamber H-pipe back on.
Problem is it's been in my garage for a year or so and it looks pretty rough at this point. I'm not sure but I think MAC puts "HTS Coating" on their stuff but it hasn't held up as I can tell. I had to run the wire wheel over a spot that needs a weld (a small crack has developed in a bend) and it's down to bare metal real easily. Even 600-grit sand paper is taking it to the metal.
Does anybody know if you can scuff this thing up and paint it? Or will it just look good for a week and go back to looking crappy? What paint or primers should I use?
Any experienced thoughts are appreciated...
