Oh - Sorry for the confusion. SO preddy how is that stuff holding up. did you do the Tech Line™ Turbo X Black or what?

I did a semi gloss black. So far the only time that is on the pipe since the ceramic is a couple of dyno pulls from the pipe shoot out.

Nice, Yeah, I have to do something. Maybe I'll pick up some paint this weekend, give the headers a full on cleaning, if it doesn't hold up, I'll send them out and have them ceramic coated.

Krandall, I am actually baking my pipes as we speak. I bought some VHT "flame proof" header paint from Summit thats supposedly good up to 2,000 deg. I painted them today and I am curing them now. I will be putting them on once I get my head back. I hope it holds up, but if not, Im in the same boat as you, I will just send it off to get Ceramic Coated. I should be able to re install them in a week and a half or so. I can post pics if u still havent done anything by then.
Cheap, Fast, Reliable. unfortunately you can only have 2 at the same time

Sounds good. I'm pulling the headers in about 10 mins. and going to start cleaning them up, not sure if I'll get to paint them this weekend though. :thumbs:

Does any body know if there is a difference between Ceramic coating and Jet-Hot Coating?  ???

They both do the inside of the pipes, as what I have been told.
