I believe stainless steel doesn't retain heat as well as the mild steel, and this has an adverse effect on power.

I run a Scorpion with a mild steel downpipe and you can really feel the difference in the heat given off between the 2 metals.

P.S. The different metals used for my Scorp didn't throw up the problems i thought it might, what with the metals expanding and contacting at different rates.
