performance is not the same....SS is heavier, more bling and more durable. Ceramic is a lighter steel, but coated w/ ceramic. the ceramic coating keeps heat inside the header. SS on the other hand, is a good conductor of heat. hotter gasses inside tubes = higher exhaust velocity = more power.
if you want durability though, you can get your shizzle heat treated. check out jet-hot....they do thermal coatings similar to how my mr-s header was treated.
i dunno how much treating costs. my header came treated at $500 :eek but 11whp gain just for the header was worth it :nod
