What would you buy?

Doesn't seem to much difference in the cost, so I assume i should go for stainless steel.

Anyone got an opinion before I go buy some?

Karl.

Alloy boost pipes will be lighter,where as steel will be heavier but stronger.
Also alloy will hold/keep the air flow cooler than steel.

If you can get aluminium tube from work, why don't you use that for free?
