Im just curious if anyone here has ever tried ceramic coated exhaust ports? I wonder if the gain with turbo in particular would be worth it.

 

bump Im sure someone must have at least done some reading on this?

From what i read, it's good cuz they take some heat away from the head and into the exhaust, also, since the coating leaves the surface smooth it helps reducing turbulence on the exhaust side.

I think the most important part is to isolate the head from the extreme heat of the exhaust, meaning your oil will thank you and it will be easier on your cooling system, off course, not a big amount.

I have seen pics of headwork in which the hole chamber and the exhaust ports are ceramic coating, but i can't remember if they did the coatings on the intake sides.

I´m very interested in some more infos about ceramic coating the exhaust ports and the chambers too. I´ve found some pics:
