Hi

I used stainless, I just got my exhaust guy to bend it. Aluminium would have a good effect on cooling, the stainless a bit as well but not as much.

Hi

One thing I will say about cooper, on the cooper 90 degree elbows that I used the rubber hoses really stuck to them, where as with the stainless or plastic fittings the hoses were easy to remove.
