Thumbs up Exhaust Valve Material?

Anyone know what material the exhaust valve is made of? How does it hold up to turbo......

Im thinking of changing them out for ferrea s/s valves once the head is off for the 2mm gasket.

TIA

Brine? Salt water? That's what Brine is. Some of them have Liquid Sodium in them but, I don't think the S2000 ones do. They're thin as hell.

Cool....... reading more about it, sodium fill reduces weight and helps heat disappation.....
