Sorry, memory fail number two.
Homemade brought up an interesting point of using 2024. Stronger at high temp than 6061 or 7075. Plus the fact that there are aluminum mufflers. Could probably do a reasonably reliable axle-back with it. Problem is all the pre-bent tubing (U and J bends, etc...) for fab is usually 6061 so you would need access to a bending setup (I will need this if I do a Ti system as well...).
