I need suggestion on which DP is the get. Price isn't an issue as they are mostly in the same price range. I want good craftsmanship, quality and ease of installtion. Since not much place selling them except from the internet, so I won't able to see the real product before i buy it. I am thinking of M2, what do you guys recommend.

just about anything that is SS is good..... none are really any better. M2 is good....

there are some varying differences...
in ease of installation, o2 port location and construction...mandrel bending...complete ss to include the flanges..welding...etc i only have experience with pettit and can recommend them... |
most people go with either stainless or ceramtic coated.
stainless last forever and looks cool coated will reduce temp drop of the the exhaust gases for higher flow. A compromise that I like is getting a good stainless and then wrap it up with fiberglass wrap. and while you at it wrap the whole exhuast that what the pro's do |
I actually have to disagree with everyone here. Stainless cracks under high heat...and we all know that FD's put out some serious heat...especially the stock twins. I also do not recommend rapping the downpipe as that will increase exhaust temps. If you have an EGT, the temps will be thru the roof. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/boink.gif
