Exhaust manifold changing colors??
i just bought a new tubular manifold for my SR and noticed what its turning a bronze color. its kinda strange because the first 3 tubes are the only ones doin this and the 4th lobe is still chrome. could this be post-detination? What else could this be??

u think its the 4th one? so your saying the manifold's supposed to turn colors that soon? i just had it put on like 3 days ago and it started turning bronze like within the first day? i've never seen headers do this sort of thing.

mine is titanium and it chagnes colors its pretty sweet. go to my car domain to see it
anyway, your 4th tube will of course corresponde to your 4th cylinder which means its running a little colder than the rest. check your spark plug and wire to that cylinder.
hopefully that will help you
