Which manifold coatings?
I am trying to decide which manifold coating I should go with. The choices are Jet Hot 2000, Swain, HPC Extreme Coating. The prices I was quoted are:
Jet Hot 2000 = 120
Swain = 150-175
HPC Extreme Coating = 350
Does anyone have experience with anyone of these and do these prices sound correct? Which one would you go with?

Re: Which manifold coatings? (TurboTypeR98)
doesnt anyone ceramic coat in your area look in the industrial section of your yellow pages/nynex - should only cost like 45 if you bring them a clean part ready to coat.

Re: Which manifold coatings? (APEXSER)
faster spool time...improves exhaust stream velocity...also swain claims up to 50% reduction in underhood temperature...but unfortunately,
my swain coating is starting to bubble and crack after only 3 months...

Re: Which manifold coatings? (downpipe)
I had a coating question myself: Will regular old powedercoating do any good, or even withstand the heat? I'm getting a bunch of other stuff powedercoated anyways so I wanted to throw the manifold in too for free basically.
Thanks for the info.

Re: Which manifold coatings? (rtype11)
I'm sure there is someplace in Dallas that can put a coating on it, but I haven't heard of any that would withstand the temps of a turbo except for the ones I mentioned. But I guess it wouldn't hurt to check around. That would save me shipping costs 
Anyone else have any experiences?
