Sorry but that is complete crap. I've seen more SS headers crack then mild steel. A lot more work is involved when using SS when making headers. Cheap 304 SS will fall apart. I've seen pleny of instances where mild steel has worked very well from mild 5-600 hp setups to 1500+ setups. Mild steel not working for a turbo setup is a myth. While SS is the better option of the two, it's not the only option.
