i live in canada ... and ya know .. canada is known for its winters (brrr .. cold) ....

my question is .. do you keep your aftermarket header (dc, hp, etc) on during the winter or remove it and put the stock header back on to prevent corrosion ?.

well if u want to make sure ur header dont rust
after u get the header get it rust proofed..

but nymbus..like u know.. all cars and parts rust.. no matter how u try to avoid it. we do live in canada n its known for its horrible snow days.. so rust is just a part of the life of a car..
even header get used up like a exhaust.. its gets eaten up from the inside out...

Yeah, I got the DC stainless one and I live in WA. I took my car up to the mountains no problems at all, and it still looks good!

don't get header wrap for the winter! that stuff holds in moisture and will rust your header out in a matter of months. just get stainless.
