I just put in the DC CC headers on my car. There's kind of an odor after running the car. Has anyone else experienced this?

 

I had a set of Jet-hot coated headers on a truck i had and they smelled for about a week after i installed them. The smell will take a wee or so and it'll go away.

 

what kind of odor is it? I just recently put a set of DC stainless headers on that I had Ceramic Coated and havent noticed anything smell wise. Although its most likely a different knid of coating...

 

the smell will go away after a week or so, like he said.

It's just a coating that burns off, ignore it unless you see a CEL, or your car just runs like ***.

 

Joon the smell should only last for about a week depending on if you drive you car everyday or not. A few long distance runs on the highway and you shouldn't smell anything any more.

RaceSi I wanted to know how the Jet-Hot coating held up ? I currently have a Mugen SS header that I feel I spent too much money for but I'd like it to keep it's new and expensive lustre by getting the Jet-Hot sterling coating. I'm just wondering if the coating will stay nice and shinny and how long it will keep looking like that ??

 

Yeah it's beginning to go away. Thanks guys.
