   yeah janspeed are good. However they are not stainless steel which means they will eventually rust. Shouldn't be a problem though as it will most likely never rust in the time that is left in the saxo anyways

   mild steel mate so it'll probs last about 20, 25 minutes?
   im sure someone will disagree though, to be fair i haven't got one of these, if you can afford to wait and save a bit more i would go for a supersprint one - http://www.kamracing.co.uk/manufactu...106-8v-14.html

   mild steel isnt that bad tbh, and if you ceramic coat it, it can last a LONG time.

   it may rust, but it'll probably outlive a saxo lol

   with a coat of ceramic as ryan said, and heat wrapped it, it would'nt rust half as quick

    they are coated in a hi heat coating which helps the corrosion issue for a while.

    In what way? in the gains they give? or the time they last?
