the CMI's are done on a priority super gee whiz top secret mandrel bender that eliminates pieced together welded headers. These are cut/fit pieces. Nit a bad lookin header, I'd give 'em a try for that price.

thats what i tought for that price and shiped not even a used CMI you'll find !

For some more money you could take them to a shop and have them powder coated and then the welds wouldnt be all that noticeable anymore.

They look pretty good to me

It would be nice to see some real test data on them.

once i bought an exhasut system for my Ducati , it cam directly from Ducati Corse Italy cost $4000+ it had all the welding on the out side like these .
in italy this Ducati exhaust system are a master piece because they say you can see the craftsmanship wellding .

For the price I would try them. CMI needs the competition along with all the other over priced marine exhaust manufacturers.

Talked to Rich @ XS about a month ago about these. He said they were they were made from 321 stainless. That is not a cheap stainless to buy. Are you the same person who posted these over on performanceboats.com in the forum ? Just asking.
