For $349, if the header outperforms and outlasts the stock piece, that's good enough for me. Even though I know other companies may be using superior grades of stainless
Just got my headers in and they are not magnetic as I expected. Lower graid stainless is magnetic and high grade stainless can also be magnetic

pretty good info here on 304 stainless. not saying it's the be all end of knowledge but from what the article says, 304 is not magnetic.

Which to me is okay, if I'm buying a header that costs far less than the competition. Lower grade stainless doesn't necessarily mean it's bad or won't last as long as the OEM exhaust. Keep in mind that many of these top quality SS exhaust systems may outlive the vehicles they're installed on.

I did run a CNT Turboback on my Legacy and was pleased with the initial quality and everything looked great about 4 years later when I sold the car. Unlike my BRZ, the Legacy was used year round
