The difference between these two manufacturers is that Fabspeed constructs theirs from T304 SS and the M&M headers are constructed of T316 SS.

Ni is approx. 8-10.5% in T304.

Ni is 12% in T316. T316 is made for marine environments.

Unless you are exposing your undercarriage to salt, say in a South Florida environment, or Northeast winters, that would be the only benefit of owning the M&M headers.

Hp gains are the same +/-.
