This is sort of on the same topic, involving exhausts. I am going to be running a 4" DP to a 4" borla XR-1 V-banded on both ends, then 4" the rest of the way out. The downpipe will undoubtedly be stainless steel, but would it be safe to run Summit or Jegs brand Aluminized steel from the midpipe back?

You could the only thing I would do is not drive the car in the winter(duh, who would), and get it ceramic coated.
