Greddy’s turn gold also, can’t be resolved without a redesign it’s the reaction of the stainless steel tips to the heat. If you look at the pic of the stock tips you will see why they do not turn gold. Less of the tip is in contact with the exhaust pipe so the OEM tips do not get as hot as the aftermarket tips. Compare the OEM to the Greddy PIC and you can see a smooth run of pipe right from the muffler, great for heat transfer.

tips on my borla are slowly turning gold as well.

on a side note, i did my first flamethrower 2 weekends ago, they must have been 8 foot long flames, and my exhaust didn't have much soot or any melted plastic.
