HPC Hipercoat Extreme Question
I'm sedning out my Mani to get coated by these guys and was wonder if any one has any experience with them?
They claim that :
"On-track testing has shown as much as a 35% reduction in under hood ambient temperature and more than 50% reduction in component skin temperature. HPC's HiPerCoat Extreme process achieves this by creating a thermal barrier which retains the heat within the exhaust system. In turbocharged applications this coating helps increase turbo boost and spool-up. Independent testing of a turbocharged Mazda engine has shown a 5% increase in horsepower when HiPerCoat Extreme was used on the exhaust manifold, turbo and downpipe.
Today's leading CART, NASCAR, IMSA, and F-1 teams use HPC's HiPerCoat Extreme process with winning success, where it easily withstands temperatures reaching 2,500° F. But race cars are not the only candidates for HiPerCoat Extreme. Sport compact cars, towing vehicles, motorhomes and buses also benefit from reduced under hood temperatures which help to prolong component life and promote passenger comfort."
