Default Jet Coating necessary for Spugen Titanium?

After reading thru all the exhausted related messages here, I have decided to go with the Spugen Ti Dual. Not Titanium doesn't rust, right? So, does that mena I don't have to worry about doing the jet coating?

I believe just the muffler is titanium and not the piping. The piping on their exhausts looks coated (or painted) already. With my experience with coated exhausts (HKS), they will start to rust away 3-4 years down the road depending on where you live. I had a full stainless system on my Miata and after 4 years, it still looked new (although the insulation inside the muffler had worn away and it was getting loud). Titanium does not rust.

I live in California and I don't plan to keep the car for more than 3 years. So I think I will skip the coating.

Thanks for the prompt reply.
