are chrome long tubes just as good as ceramic coated even though ceramic coated is more expensive, much of a difference?

Ceramics last longer and won't rust.

Chromex ™ Ceramic Exhaust Coating is the most popular kind of coating on the market today. This type of coating (metallic ceramic) is used by more companies and manufacturers than any other material. It is extremely popular on exhaust systems, where the high luster finish provides a very attractive, durable surface. The high temperature characteristics of ceramics have been combined with metallic frits to create a coating that can withstand metal temperatures in excess of 1300° F and provides 5000 hr. salt spray protection.

A truly unique coating that is based on a water/solvent system, it may be applied to a variety of surfaces and metals such as exhaust system components, brackets, valve covers, hinges, grills, suspension parts or any metal part that can withstand the 500° F cure temperatures. It polishes to a high luster, stainless/chrome appearance that will not rust, and is especially effective as a hard protective coating for aluminum parts.

lmao. I don't have a habit of parking my car in puddles deep enough to soak the headers. Talk about common sense.

did i ever say that ? if you used common sense instead of you making a joke of being wrong...time and water will mess anything up....and eventually it will rust....yeah it may take years and years...but it will eventually...dont always believe what you read

Dude relax, it's just a joke. I never said you said that I said.....uhhhh fuck it. lol
Of course eventually ALL things will erode. I'm not dense, and I've been around the block. When most ceramic coated products day 'won't rust', I take that to mean that they are going to last WAY longer than normal chrome headers. I've built a few engines, cars, and toys in my lifetime. Don't worry, at 40, I've figured out not to believe everything I read.
